Offshore/subsea systems
The Begonia and CLOV Phase 3 subsea tiebacks are each sending production to nearby FPSOs.
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.

Over the next 5 years Douglas-Westwood (DW) expect USD 122 billion to be spent on global subsea vessel operations—an increase of 64% compared with the previous 5-year period.
-
This paper summary focuses upon reporting new research-and-development (R&D) initiatives related to subsea processing and boosting offshore Brazil.
-
This paper focuses on the applicability of subsea-processing technology (SPT) using multiphase pumps (MPPs) to develop marginal fields commercially.
-
Subsea processing is a significant technology that presents and will continue to bring many challenges and opportunities to the industry.
-
This paper summarizes the results of a qualification program that included a multiphase, subsea-separation system for shallow-water applications.
-
Because of extremely high internal and external pressures, unconventional separator designs must be used in ultradeepwater applications. A major operator has qualified a number of subsea technologies covering a wide range of operating conditions and fluid properties that encompass its subsea portfol
