Offshore/subsea systems
The Absheron gas field expansion will supply additional natural gas to Azerbaijan’s domestic market and support its export commitments to Turkey, allowing Baku to stay focused on meeting its gas export obligations to Europe.
This paper presents a flexible, highly cost- and energy-efficient method of gas separation and CO₂ capture from many different gas mixtures with a large range of CO₂ concentrations.
This work introduces a novel predictive methodology combining historical metocean data with real-time riser analysis for shallow water dynamically positioned rig operations.

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 project aims to power subsea equipment with wave power and subsea energy storage. The two technologies have been deployed in the seas off Orkney, Scotland, and have begun a test program where they will provide low-carbon power and communication to infrastructure.

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.
