Facility operability is a matter of safety and efficiency. Though most facilities are built and operated successfully, problems sometimes arise during the design phase that can lead to costly incidents.

The development and upgrade of mature facilities is ultimately driven by the significant shift in the composition of the arrival fluids, mainly the increasing water cut and solids production.

Oil prices from USD 50/bbl to USD 60/bbl have been sustained for several weeks, and energy-related stocks have fallen significantly below their 52-week highs and 30% below in some cases.

2015 SPE President Helge Hove Haldorsen reveals the eight dimensions to focus on in plotting your way to career success.

Steel catenary risers (SCRs) on a large-heave-motion vessel are susceptible to compression in the riser touchdown zone (TDZ). In this paper, a finite-element-analysis modeling method is presented to simulate deformation, pipe ovality, and local pipe buckling.

After 10 years, the world’s first cell spar, Anadarko’s Red Hawk, was decommissioned. It remained the only cell spar fabricated and again made history as the deepest floating production unit ever decommissioned in the GOM.

For many projects, asphaltene management plans are a matter of remediation or prevention. In the past decade, models have been developed to predict how asphaltene particles will behave in oil—the conditions under which precipitation and agglomeration occur.

The decline in oil prices will not affect the long-term strategy of national oil companies in the Middle East, ministers and senior executives said at the opening of the 30th edition of Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) held in November.

To meet one of SPE’s strategic priorities, capability development, the Society has partnered with International Human Resource Development Corporation (IHRDC) to offer the SPE Competency Management Tool (CMT) free to its members.
