Onshore/Offshore Facilities
War‑related infrastructure damage is beginning to influence global energy supply chains in ways that could reshape project development and capacity growth.
Sulzer and JSIL are teaming up to provide the service for oil and gas, power generation, and industrial operations.
The deal includes Waygate’s inspection portfolios and is expected to close later this year.

Many offshore decommissioning costs are higher than necessary because of decisions made during the initial engineering and construction for an oil or gas field.
-
With a high demand for plug and abandonment (P&A) of subsea wells in the future on the Norwegian continental shelf, industry is challenged to find alternatives and rigless technologies that can make P&A operation more cost-effective and -efficient.
-
Thermal recovery often causes variations in heavy oil viscosity. Yet viscosity is key to recovery, reserves estimation, and ultimately project success. A correlation for predicting viscosity is presented.
-
The 2014 SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition (ATCE) in Amsterdam drew people from all over the world, covered global themes, and focused on the triumphs, challenges, and remaining opportunities for the North Sea.
-
Well plugging and abandoning on a limited budget is a lofty goal that forces the industry to consider new ways and new materials. Cost-effectively dealing with this global problem will require developing tools to carry out the decommissioning without bringing in a drilling rig.
-
This paper gives an overview of ongoing research activities on the subject of offshore use of composite flowlines, risers, and topside piping.
-
Growing world demand for natural gas will drive increases in capital expenditures on LNG through 2019.
-
Subsea power demand is growing to support various processing loads, including pumps and compressors. This paper presents a modular direct-current electrical-power system that is designed for use in a subsea field with medium or long step-out distance
-
Rice University has been working on effective models of phase behavior and asphaltene deposition as a path to improved design that can reduce this challenge for operators.
