This article from the SPE Robotics and Autonomous Systems Technical Section (RASTS) explores the insights shared at the recent Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston about autonomous systems and their role in the industry's future.
The Pinnington project in North Texas is the company’s largest solar project in the state and brings Repsol’s renewable energy generation capacity in the US to greater than 2 GW.
The technology has passed its first phase of qualification, with 84 nodes placed on the seafloor at a depth of 2,000 m to acquire 4D seismic data in the pre-salt Santos Basin.
