Offshore/subsea systems
Aker Solutions, SLB, and Subsea 7 have joined to create a subsea engineering firm to drive innovation and efficiency in subsea production.
The authors of this paper discuss the effectiveness of smaller port sizes and the use of dummy and Venturi valves to enhance gas lift performance and maximize recovery in mature offshore fields.
The company is set to supply offshore well services and subsea systems for Vår Energi-operated fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
