Offshore/subsea systems
The North Sea project, which is sending production to the nearby Ivar Aasen platform, came online 9 months ahead of schedule.
Equinor said it found between 14 million and 24 million BOE with its most recent exploration well in the Polynya Tubåen prospect.
BP sanctioned development of the Kaskida in 2024, with first oil from the high-pressure project expected in 2029.

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

The value of new technology, and its ROI, is examined. Understanding the value proposition is not a trivial matter. When investing in facilities technologies, we have traditionally looked to invest in those that will reduce Capex or Opex. But what about niche technologies?
-
This paper analyzes the various selection methods of integrated template structures (ITSs) for use in the Arctic environment. Operation and installation of subsea modules in the Barents Sea are also analyzed in this paper.
-
As production from mature basins onshore and in shallow water declines, the development of deepwater reserves has become vital. Consequently, production and Capex are expected to rise.
-
Linhua4-1 was China’s first tieback subsea development project. To develop this marginal oil field, a number of technical challenges were overcome through a series of new technologies, and their successful development and implementation.
-
As offshore development moves into deeper waters, harsh environments, and longer distances, the economic and practical advantages of moving as many components to the seafloor as possible has become a driving factor in technology development.
