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.
-
The paper presents the challenges faced and overcome while drilling and testing a high-pressure/high-temperature sour-gas well offshore in an environmentally sensitive environment. -
Tested within a full ballast water tank on a North Sea FPSO, the ROV collected visual inspection data, validating system performance including wireless navigation and wireless communication.
-
This paper identifies success factors behind the Johan Sverdrup predrilling campaign and outlines lessons learned.
-
The authors determine that economical and environmentally responsible solutions exist for fluid disposal during well-testing operations.
-
A two-armed autonomous underwater vehicle has been launched for complex inspection and maintenance tasks, embedded in a powerful IT infrastructure that enables both intuitive control and monitoring of the system and effective information flow with the plant operator.
-
Design, construction specialist books new work in the Middle East, Australia, and Saudi Arabia.
-
The plan includes the development and operation of a first-of-its-kind high-voltage, direct-current (HVDC-VSC) subsea transmission system in the Middle East and North Africa region.
-
Helix Energy Solutions will start work on a five-well complete abandonment project in the offshore Tui field in late 2022.
-
Egypt and Greece have clinched a deal to build the EU-backed EuroAfrica Interconnector subsea cable via Cyprus to bring renewable energy from North Africa to Europe and move Cairo closer to its goals of becoming an energy transmission hub for the East Med.
-
Shell reported that most of its production was back online, but some facilities will remain shut-in until the end of the year.
