Offshore production systems can be impacted negatively by numerous problems attributed to bacterial activity, associated hydrogen sulfide and biogenic iron sulfides, and mercaptan production. Acrolein provides a distinctive all-in-one chemical solution to assist in resolving these problems.

Asset integrity management encompasses the design, operation, and maintenance of an asset to preserve its integrity at an acceptable level of risk throughout its operating life.

From 2006 to 2010, much of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) export construction activity occurred in the Middle East, in particular Qatar.

The present work describes the development of a 1D steady-state isothermal reservoir/surface gas-pipeline-network model. The developed model is an extension of the general pipeline-network model in which the deliverability from the wells is calculated.

Chevron's Eve Sprunt and Susan Howes discuss results of an SPE survey on dual-career couples.

This month's papers address one of the effects of an alkaline-surfactant-polymer flood on changes to the emulsion rheology, the conservation of flared associated gas from two onshore Tunisian fields despite high H2S and CO2 content, and minimizing HSE impacts for pipelines in the Baltic Sea.

ABS Group’s board of directors elected David Weinstein as president and chief executive officer (CEO).

One of the more challenging flow assurance problems in deepwater subsea gas pipelines and equipment is the formation of natural gas hydrates. Gas hydrates form under conditions of low temperatures and high pressures, such as those found in deep water.

Douglas-Westwood expects 8% growth in offshore operations and maintenance (O&M) expenditure annually from 2012 to 2016. O&M are markets considerably less vulnerable to downturn than their capital‑led counterparts.

As the development of US shale plays expands to undeveloped or underdeveloped areas, the environmental issues related to surface facilities move to front and center. Operators, regulators, politicians, and the general public have become more aware of and concerned about environmental effects.
