facility design

This paper describes the development of guidelines to determine the most suitable corrosion-resistant alloys for downhole injection equipment in wells for carbon capture and storage and carbon capture, use, and storage.

By the end of 2025, a floating wind turbine will supply power to the operator’s Culzean platform in the Central North Sea.

This paper provides insights into the technical and economic viability of repurposing oil and gas wells for geothermal energy production for direct heating.

This paper describes a revamped methodology for field-development strategy formulation, particularly for marginal hydrocarbon resources, by shifting the mindset toward designing with an aim to value in order to improve project viability.

Today, oil and gas are still important energy providers. They will remain with us throughout this century, but, like the coal industry, they will decline, not because we will run out, but mankind will learn to harvest cleaner energy more favorable to the wellbeing of us all. In the meantime, I do hope that we are not so quick to rid ourselves of the impressive industr…

The paper describes a systems-engineering-guidance document currently being developed, and outlines the benefits associated with the use of formal systems-engineering processes when designing complex facilities.

Something often talked about but rarely occurs is the reuse of an existing, but idled, production platform on a new field. LLOG wants to change that with ambitions to rejuvenate the former Independence Hub floating production system for use on its Leon/Castile project in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

Their model’s predictions should help researchers improve ocean climate simulations and hone the design of offshore structures.

Oil and gas facilities regularly store and dispense large quantities of flammable and combustible liquids. Given the potential for gas, vapor, or dust to collect in these areas, the electronic equipment installed must be designed to prevent ignition of these elements by electrical arcing or other thermal means.

People and businesses alike are adapting processes and products to help ensure the activities we undertake and products we produce are sustainable for the future. Industrial lighting is no exception.
