Onshore/Offshore Facilities
The Granat prospect on the Norwegian Continental Shelf may be developed with a subsea tieback to existing infrastructure.
The planned facility was designed to process 34 MMcf/D of associated gas into fully refined gasoline.
The awards build on Tenaris’ role in earlier phases of the ultradeepwater Black Sea project.

One of the oldest deepwater platforms in the Gulf of Mexico has become a profit-leader for the oil major during this downturn and is now a model for the company’s other floating assets.
-
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is a promising way to remove dispersed oil from produced water. In this study, the authors investigated the optimal operating conditions for MNPs and the mechanisms of MNP/oil attachments and magnetic separation.
-
AUVs aren’t limited to inspections and pipeline surveys. Deployment of a flotilla of AUVs to work on a project, and the communication among them, may someday lead to a subsea Internet of Things.
-
Innovations characterize the deepwater Moho Nord field development, recently brought on stream by Total in the Republic of Congo, and the project creates significant value for the country.
-
When companies are rewarded for short-term performance, there is little incentive to deal with long-term risks such as decommissioning. It’s so much easier to leave it for the future; but increasingly, that future is now.
-
The need to offset declining production from mature basins, as well as the ability of international oil companies to access larger reserves with the use of new exploration-and-production technology, will continue to drive deepwater expenditure.
-
This paper provides an insight into the challenges encountered and overcome during installation of 20 subsea structures, some close to 1000 t in weight and in water depths of up to 1350 m, for the Gorgon project offshore Western Australia.
-
The complete paper evaluates optimization techniques to develop, or support, business cases for intelligent or smart wells.
-
This paper presents full-scale tests that show it is possible to obtain good cement placement when the tubing is left in the hole.
