Awards related to the 2024 APA round are expected to be announced in early 2025.

Since the late 1930s, the offshore industry has advanced from the first platform in 14 ft of water to the ultradeepwater 20K era. Driven by seismic, drilling, and development breakthroughs, the industry has pushed into deeper waters, high-pressure reservoirs, and new frontiers like Guyana, continually expanding the limits of offshore exploration.

This paper describes the development of a comprehensive digital solution for well surveillance and field-production optimization for an offshore field consisting of four stacked reservoirs, each containing near-critical fluids.

This paper presents an evaluation of the lithium potential of assets in the North Sea.

This paper presents an automated underwater robot and a nondestructive testing eddy-current probe for alternating-current field measurement analysis of jacket main welds.

This study proposes graphene nanoplatelets as a preflush system to extend the lifetime of a conventional scale-inhibitor squeeze treatment.

The goal of the project described in this paper was to test the added value of shear-wave velocity interpreted from underwater multichannel analysis surface waves, particularly as a propagation tool of geotechnical information.

This paper describes the design of compact carbon-capture modules, including post-combustion CO2 removal process technology, for applications on offshore facilities.

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

The support vessel operator has invested in project-management software and in making connections using Starlink satellites.
