Flow assurance
This study proposes graphene nanoplatelets as a preflush system to extend the lifetime of a conventional scale-inhibitor squeeze treatment.
The paper details subsea system development for the Mero field and how operation of Mero’s early production system influenced the final configuration for all Mero projects.
This work chronicles a series of operational activities in hydrate-blockage detection, modeling assessment, and safe and successful plug-remediation efforts in a Norwegian gas condensate subsea asset.

The authors challenge the traditional planning and execution of interventions, both from an operational and commercial standpoint, and examine where room exists for significant improvement in the industry -
To avoid costly interventions like sidetracking or wellbore abandonment, a check-valve system was installed near the sandface within three injector wells which prevented the mobilization of fines from the reservoir into the wellbore by stopping backflow.
-
SponsoredSmart completions using autonomous outflow control devices significantly helped in improving reservoir management and increasing oil and gas field productivity by enhancing the injection wells' performance.

This year has seen a focus on gas development projects and the energy transition. Flow assurance plays an interesting role in this area. Even though the attention has been on the energy transition, where gas development is concerned, the production processes through which gas is produced cannot be ignored. Thus, flow-assurance issues remain prevalent today, and an ana…
