Onshore/Offshore Facilities
The latest edition of ISO 20815 extends the petroleum industry's production assurance and reliability management framework to carbon capture, hydrogen, ammonia, and wind assets.
Shell has demonstrated drone-in-a-box operations from its Mars floating production unit, becoming the first operator in the region to secure FAA approval for self-approved offshore beyond-visual-line-of-sight flights. JPT Senior Technology Editor Jennifer Pallanich visited Shell Technology Center Houston to see the system in action.
Increased capacity from new terminals and expansions drove up exports of liquefied natural gas at the quickest rate since 2016.

This paper discusses a comprehensive hybrid approach that combines machine learning with a physics-based risk-prediction model to detect and prevent the formation of hydrates in flowlines and separators. -
Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.
-
This paper explains that the discovery of specific pressure trends, combined with an unconventional approach for analyzing gas compositional data, enables the detection and prediction of paraffin deposition at pad level and in the gathering system.
-
This paper presents an approach to subsea hydrate-risk management based on the understanding that some crudes have induction properties that delay hydrate formation even when the pressure and temperature conditions reach the hydrate thermodynamic region.
-
The advancement of flow-assurance technology can be characterized as a transition from reactive to proactive, from laboratory-scale examination to field applicability, and from data-driven to big data and physics integration.
-
The global oilfield service company is working with Ormat Technologies to boost its integrated geothermal business.
-
SponsoredSince 1997, intelligent completions have transformed reservoir management, but adoption remains limited due to perceived complexity. The industry reached a pivotal moment with the development of next-generation technologies that address longstanding challenges and offer simpler operation solutions.
-
Satellite data show nearly 45,000 methane plumes worldwide in the first quarter, triple the number from a year earlier.
-
The service company said the cancellation of a 2-GW offshore wind project in the Netherlands means its restructuring plan can no longer be delivered.
