This article addresses the challenges of managing water-soluble organics (WSOs) in offshore produced water. It provides a brief discussion of the chemistry, along with strategies and technologies that can be used to manage WSO levels in produced water, thus facilitating compliance with regulatory overboard water-quality guidelines.
The new technology, recently highlighted at OTC, has received a statement of maturity from ABS.
War‑related infrastructure damage is beginning to influence global energy supply chains in ways that could reshape project development and capacity growth.

This paper describes development of technology with the capability to combust flare gases with a heating value up to 50% lower than existing flare-tip technology.
-
This paper describes a chemical-free process with a small footprint designed to capture exhaust from natural gas drive compressors and supporting gas-fueled production equipment.
-
The Libra Consortium, led by Brazil’s Petrobras, has developed a method of separating carbon dioxide from reservoir fluids at the seafloor rather than the FPSO topsides.

This paper discusses the importance of modular refineries and their effects on the availability of petroleum products in Nigeria.
-
This paper outlines issues to be resolved during facility design and provides guidelines, calculations, and examples for sand-handling steps to be implemented after separation.
-
This paper presents an artificial intelligence algorithm called dual heuristic dynamic programming that can be used to solve petroleum optimization-control problems.
