Offshore/subsea systems
Industry forecasts point to increasing upstream expenditure and production, even as geopolitical volatility and smaller discoveries challenge project economics.
How OSRL, InterMoor, and Oceaneering adapted existing technologies into a method for landing a capping stack on a shallow-water well.
The Absheron gas field expansion will supply additional natural gas to Azerbaijan’s domestic market and support its export commitments to Turkey, allowing Baku to stay focused on meeting its gas export obligations to Europe.
-
Deepwater production has become more reliant on the integrity of subsea, umbilical, riser, and flowline (SURF) systems. A JIP explored cost-effective inspection and maintenance options.
-
Douglas-Westwood (DW) expects the expenditure of subsea vessel operations to begin a gentle upswing after next year.
-
Statoil is going to work to put its enormous Johan Sverdrup discovery into production, showing that even one of the most explored parts of the North Sea still has significant potential.
-
As subsea electric lines age, they are prone to cracks that allow seawater in, reducing their effectiveness, and if the leaks are bad enough, they can shut down operations.
-
To support subsea processing of heavy crudes, an inline electrocoalescer was tested for separation of water droplets dispersed in the crude oil.
-
Projects are being delayed or deferred due to low oil prices, which is affecting the market for subsea, umbilicals, risers, and flowlines (SURF).
-
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.
-
This paper addresses the standardized features applied to the 10,000-psi-rated subsea-system components at the Espirito Santos FPSO in the Campos basin offshore Brazil.
-
The need for standardization of subsea equipment has never been greater. With the drop in oil prices, cost reduction has become critical.
