Subsea tieback in the Central North Sea expected to produce 20,000 BOED at peak, boosting output to Alvheim FPSO.

The two projects at the Jack/St. Malo and Tahiti deepwater facilities are expected to recover millions of additional barrels of oil equivalent.

Each year during its Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE), SPE honors members whose outstanding contributions to SPE and the petroleum industry merit special distinction. Recipients will be recognized at the Annual Awards Banquet on Tuesday, 24 September.

Surveillance technologies have undergone a revolution, reshaping how facilities, wells, and reservoirs are monitored. These advancements not only have increased the scale at which these technologies are deployed but also have led to an unprecedented influx of data. The sheer volume of data, however, poses a significant challenge to traditional analytical methods.

This study aims to optimize the use of rhamnolipid biosurfactants for enhancing the bioremediation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soil.
