Offshore/subsea systems
Shell became the first international company to operate producing fields offshore Brazil and the first to navigate the country’s complex and detailed decommissioning permitting process, which involved extensive environmental assessments, regulatory approvals, and coordinated stakeholder engagement.
North Sea tieback to the Troll C platform could begin production by the end of 2029.
The field, which holds the first production license on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, sent oil to the Jotun FPSO on 23 June.

Flow assurance in subsea oil and gas fields often presents significant challenges. Every field has its own combination of difficulties, and no universal process or system can be used to mitigate these. Detailed knowledge across a broad range of competencies, therefore, is required to find solutions that can minimize the risk of not getting the hydrocarbons safely to t…
