Onshore/Offshore Facilities
This study aims to systematically assess casing integrity and corrosion risks associated with CO2 injection in oil-recovery operations.
The US federal government is working to stymie offshore wind power, but proponents aren’t going quietly. Armed with data, they are taking on a sea of misinformation and hostility to defend the burgeoning resource in the US, while the rest of the world moves ahead briskly.
This paper reviews a proof-of-concept project in which surplus casing pipes were used in the fabrication of purposefully designed artificial reef structures for the enhancement of biodiversity and commercial fisheries.
-
This study presents the development of a novel modeling tool designed to predict condensate emulsions, focusing on key factors causing emulsions such as pH, solid content, asphaltene concentration, droplet size, and organic acids. -
With the right infrastructure and interoperability, subsea resident robotics could unlock more frequent, cost-effective inspections—and a new standard for offshore efficiency.
-
Emerging solutions could solve current subsea pain points, while a new taxonomy system could clarify the capabilities of the expanding domain of underwater vehicles.
-
This study explores enhancing gas production through a novel combination of prestimulation using a coiled tubing unit and high-rate matrix acidizing.
-
This work introduces a fast, methodical approach to detect liquid loading using easily available field data while avoiding traditional assumptions and to determine critical gas rates directly from field data.
-
This paper discusses the journey of the Bonga North project, highlighting challenges and resolution strategies in a constantly changing deepwater environment.
-
Rystad Energy reports that developers are increasingly turning to floating LNG to reduce costs and accelerate project timelines in response to growing gas demand.
-
Almost all rigs, platforms, and vessels have some form of cellular mobile services, fiber, or even microwave transmission. Nevertheless, all these vessels and assets are equipped with satellite connectivity capabilities.
-
The Begonia and CLOV Phase 3 subsea tiebacks are each sending production to nearby FPSOs.
-
The China National Offshore Oil Corporation said it plans to use water injection, steam huff ’n’ puff, and steamflooding to produce the heavy oil field, with peak production expected in 2026.
