The Absheron gas field expansion will supply additional natural gas to Azerbaijan’s domestic market and support its export commitments to Turkey, allowing Baku to stay focused on meeting its gas export obligations to Europe.
A credible custody-transfer record depends on far more than the accuracy of a single meter. It is the product of an integrated measurement chain. While meter performance supports measurement-system integrity, commercial confidence also depends on traceability, governance, and authorization.
Despite significant progress in capturing associated gas for domestic use, Iraq remains the world’s third-largest gas-flaring country as it aims for higher oil and gas production targets.

Mitigation of flow-assurance problems continues to drive new production-technology applications and approaches. The three papers highlighted here focus on minimizing costs while providing safe, effective, and reliable operations.
-
In this study, the effects of the hydrodynamic parameters are decoupled with specially designed flow-loop experiments. The results enhance understanding of the deposition behavior at various hydrodynamic conditions and aid in scaling up from laboratory to field conditions.
-
In this study, two coatings were produced and evaluated to determine their effect on hydrate adhesion onto carbon-steel surfaces.
-
This paper presents the traditional methods of hydrate mitigation used in the NKJ fields and the way in which a transient model was initially built and continuously improved.
