Offshore/subsea systems
SPE Offshore Europe 2027 has unveiled its conference theme, “(Em)Powering Europe: Securing Our Energy Future,” and opened the call for technical paper proposals for the Aberdeen event.
This paper discusses waterflooding and field-development implications of subsea seawater treatment for improved oil recovery.
This paper presents an engineering solution tailored for shallow-water oilfield development in Bohai Bay, addressing the confluence of spatial constraints, marginal economics, and environmental conditions that have rendered such reserves stranded.

By initially ring-fencing Absheron’s gas for the domestic market, Azerbaijan will be able to export more of its overall gas production to Europe from across other projects.
-
The component is part of a full subsea deepwater completion/intervention system being designed by Expro for use on the Chevron tieback.

The supermajor redefined its Mad Dog II development in three key ways: a blank-sheet redesign to cut costs, altering the way it works as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and a digital twin offering unique access to the asset from anywhere in the world.
-
Recent developments from Equinor and Murphy Oil Corp. offer hope that the industry is zeroing in the right approach to building megaprojects.
-
The drilling of the Berling field will begin in the third quarter of 2026, with gas and condensate production expected in 2028.
-
The contractor will see the delivery of its first subsea production systems to Azule Energy.
-
The Swiss-based company Hydromea announced advances in underwater optical modem technology and development of an underwater monitoring system capable of daily data sweeps remotely.
