Onshore/Offshore Facilities
This paper reviews a proof-of-concept project in which surplus casing pipes were used in the fabrication of purposefully designed artificial reef structures for the enhancement of biodiversity and commercial fisheries.
This paper presents a study that confirms glass-reinforced-epoxy-lined tubing as a reliable, cost-effective solution for long-term water-injection service in moderate-salinity offshore environments.
A circular economy emphasizes reducing, reusing, recycling, and removing parts of existing systems to optimize them with respect to resource utilization. The following papers demonstrate how these pillars of a circular economy are enabling operators all over the world.
