Onshore/Offshore Facilities
ExxonMobil and its Area 4 partners have awarded $1.1 billion in pre-investment contracts for long-lead upstream equipment supporting Mozambique's Rovuma LNG project. The awards, led by OneSubsea, mark a key step toward FID as development advances on ExxonMobil's largest global investment.
SPE Offshore Europe 2027 has unveiled its conference theme, “(Em)Powering Europe: Securing Our Energy Future,” and opened the call for technical paper proposals for the Aberdeen event.
Flow measurement touches almost every phase of oil and gas operations. Yet the industry still struggles to distinguish between what is directly measured, what is inferred, and what is estimated through models, correlations, or assumptions. That distinction matters. A measurement does not need to be perfect to be useful, but it must be fit for purpose.

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.

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.

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.
-
This study proposes graphene nanoplatelets as a preflush system to extend the lifetime of a conventional scale-inhibitor squeeze treatment.
-
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.
-
This paper describes the design of compact carbon-capture modules, including post-combustion CO₂ removal process technology, for applications on offshore facilities.
