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.

Successful rejuvenation of two declining fields was enabled through innovation in both engineering and procurement strategy. -
The deepwater industry uses technology qualification (TQ) as a tool to determine which safety barriers are needed, and what level of testing is required. Even without failure data from the field, a method has been developed to quantify the integrity of various components.
-
Intervention and workover operations can significantly affect the structural integrity and fatigue life of subsea-wellhead systems. Methodologies for wellhead-fatigue analysis have improved, but have yet to account for thermal effects along the well. This study analyzes those thermal effects.
-
The sharp downturn in the offshore oil business has sparked interest in using subsea pumps to add production. If those conversations turn into orders, it may convert this rarely used option into a commonly used tool for extending the life of offshore fields.
-
McDermott and Nakilat-Keppel Offshore Marine (N-KOM) agreed to an exclusive cooperation agreement for offshore engineering, procurement, construction, and installation projects within Qatari waters.

The annual SPE PFC Technical Section dinner will take place during ATCE in Dubai on 26 September.
-
Tiny bubbles, called nanobubbles, are the focal point of a new innovation aimed at transforming produced water from a costly byproduct into a valuable asset.
-
Wind power via floating turbines could be used to pump oil from remote offshore fields in the way windmills were once used to pump water from wells in arid West Texas.
-
As it has since 1969, the world came to OTC to make critical decisions, share ideas, and develop business partnerships to meet global energy demands.
