Offshore/subsea systems
This paper reviews the motivation and development of response-based forecasting from the perspective of the authors, reviewing examples and processes that have served as validation and led to modeling refinement.
This paper compares traditional welded techniques, such as above-water repair methods and underwater hyperbaric welding, with the novel options offered by subsea connectors purposely developed for corrosion-resistant-alloy-clad pipelines.
This paper introduces a technology for offshore pipeline inspection centered on an autonomous robotic system equipped with underwater computer vision and edge-computing capabilities.

In 2015, the world’s first subsea multiphase gas compression system was installed offshore Norway. The system comprises two-off 5-MW machines configurable for serial or parallel compression. This system has now gained considerable and valuable operational experience.
-
Both operational experience and studies of future offshore gas-field developments are showing that subsea gas-compression systems not only reduce investment costs but also increase recovery significantly.
