Field/project development
Engineering, procurement, construction, and installation awards made at the end of 2025 are expanding Saipem’s role in Turkey’s two largest offshore gas fields, plus Saudi Arabia’s Berri, Abu Safah, and Marjan oil fields and Qatar’s North Field gas giant in the Persian Gulf.
The platform brings the field’s installed production capacity to 1.5 million BOPD.
This paper describes an auto-adaptive workflow that leverages a complex interplay between machine learning, physics of fluid flow, and a gradient-free algorithm to enhance the solution of well-placement problems.
