Onshore/Offshore Facilities
War-related damage to oil and gas facilities is expected to disrupt global supply chains for years, as backlogs for critical equipment continue to grow, Rystad Energy reports.
The rise in China’s gas production, now exceeding that of Qatar and of Australia, is also limiting growth in its LNG demand.
TotalEnergies will instead invest in the Rio Grande LNG plant, upstream conventional oil development in the US Gulf of Mexico, and shale-gas production.

The traditional method of inspecting tanks puts workers in danger. Using robots instead can keep workers out of harm’s way. -
Subsea tieback in the Central North Sea expected to produce 20,000 BOED at peak, boosting output to Alvheim FPSO.
-
The two projects at the Jack/St. Malo and Tahiti deepwater facilities are expected to recover millions of additional barrels of oil equivalent.

Offshore wind power involves generating electricity from wind farms located at sea. Because wind speeds are generally higher offshore than on land, these farms produce more electricity for the same amount of installed capacity. Both wind and solar energy are renewable and do not emit carbon, which helps reduce dependence on fossil fuels such as oil and gas.

This study proposes graphene nanoplatelets as a preflush system to extend the lifetime of a conventional scale-inhibitor squeeze treatment.
-
This paper describes the design of compact carbon-capture modules, including post-combustion CO₂ removal process technology, for applications on offshore facilities.
-
This paper describes a workflow that has been established to calculate the value of reservoir surveillance in producing gas fields based on established value-of-information methods.
-
This paper presents an automated underwater robot and a nondestructive testing eddy-current probe for alternating-current field measurement analysis of jacket main welds.
-
The goal of the project described in this paper was to test the added value of shear-wave velocity interpreted from underwater multichannel analysis surface waves, particularly as a propagation tool of geotechnical information.

Since the late 1930s, the offshore industry has advanced from the first platform in 14 ft of water to the ultradeepwater 20K era. Driven by seismic, drilling, and development breakthroughs, the industry has pushed into deeper waters, high-pressure reservoirs, and new frontiers like Guyana, continually expanding the limits of offshore exploration.
