Production
The Coral Norte FLNG is to be the mirror image of the Coral Sul unit, which shipped its first cargo in 2022 after it was put into service in Area 4 offshore Mozambique.
In the fourth development phase, a planned tieback would connect resources from two North Sea discoveries to existing infrastructure at the Johan Sverdrup field, pending project sanction.
This paper proposes a novel, real-time pump failure prediction method using machine learning with scaled load ratio to accurately predict pump failures using only surface pump load data.

A wide range of corrosive elements and compounds from a variety of crudes has led to a renewed industry focus on corrosion and the effects it has on pipelines and vessels. -
A relatively small concentration of a defoamer can have a significant impact on the dynamics of multiphase flow within a pipe, but the effect is generally temporary.
-
As producers push logistical and technological limits to operate in deeper water and more remote locations, maintaining and repairing offshore structures can present a number of challenges unique to these environments. One of the costliest is corrosion.

Offshore oil and gas fields exist along the continental shelf of every continent—even Antarctica.
-
There are considerable benefits to conducting rigless subsea well intervention from specialized monohull vessels.
-
Fiber-optic-system installations have reduced the need for intervention by logging tools and have given crucial insights into wellbore integrity and reservoir production.
-
The rapid growth of progressing cavity pumps is an example of how new uses continue to emerge for older technology.
-
As the world's supply of crude becomes heavier, many of the world’s oil producers will have to think more carefully about heavy crudes and the challenges they pose for processing, storage, and transportation.
-
This paper is intended to increase awareness among the forecasters and the decision makers about pitfalls associated with production forecasting.

In an SPE webinar, “Foaming in Separators: Handling and Operation,” Wally Georgie, principal consultant at Maxoil Solutions, presented an overview of foam generation and how the design of processes and chemical management can exacerbate its detrimental effects in separators.
