Onshore/Offshore Facilities
After a record year for LNG project approvals in 2025, multiyear repairs to war-damaged liquefaction facilities in Qatar and the UAE threaten to slow the growth of global LNG capacity.
The declaration builds on a memorandum of understanding the partners signed with Egypt in May to process Block 10 gas at the country’s LNG export and domestic gas facilities.
Alongside the new subsea awards, Equinor strengthened its position in the 400-million-bbl Bay du Nord development by acquiring BP’s interest in the project.

The need for standardization of subsea equipment has never been greater. With the drop in oil prices, cost reduction has become critical. -
In this paper, an analysis of the selection of integrated template structures (ITSs) for Arctic environments is presented.
-
This paper describes the architecture of the Lucius Gulf of Mexico subsea production system and the drivers behind it.
-
Floating LNG (FLNG) units have a higher risk of explosion than onshore plants because of the limited and congested environment on the ship. This paper focuses on proper design to address this hazard.
-
Use of surfactants and gas lift in combination to suppress severe slugging were tested. Surfactants were able to suppress severe slugging for most of the cases, and gas lift helped significantly.
-
"Gas Scrubber Design and Validation for Robust Separation Duty" is the title of a special session planned by the Separations Technology Technical Section.
-
Offshore drillers have been battered by the plunge in oil prices with falling day rates and a growing number of older rigs headed for demolition.
-
This paper provides a benchmarking of different cryogenic tanks in terms of operation life and type of containment (single- vs. double-containment tanks) in the LNG industry. The different options adopted to recertify these tanks are covered.
-
The roles of wellbore tubulars in delivering continued well integrity are diverse, critical, and congruent throughout the life of the well.
-
This paper describes efficient detection of well-control events, in both underbalanced and overbalanced conditions.
