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 details the design and implementation of a subsea multiphase pump solution deployed in the Atlanta field designed to maximize reuse of existing subsea and topside equipment.

A JIP turned the dial closer to achieving all-electric subsea processing with the underwater testing of a subsea variable speed drive in a harsh water environment.
-
Statoil has submitted a long-awaited development plan for what will become Norway’s northernmost development.
-
Obstacles remain to keeping offshore development competitive with its onshore counterpart. Can the industry advance technology at a pace where the subsea segment will see a resurgence?
-
Since the Macondo disaster, industry publications have discussed the equipment, connections, and interfaces needed for capping and containing a blowing subsea well, but they give little insight into developing a well-specific subsea capping contingency plan.
-
McDermott announced a letter of award for a contract from Reliance Industries for the deepwater KG-D6 subsea field development in the Krishna Godavari Basin.
-
Baku Shipyard completed the sea trials of BP's subsea construction vessel Khankendi, which is being constructed for the Shah Deniz Stage 2 project.
-
WiSub will lead a consortium with Statoil, Kongsberg, Saab, and other companies and universities to develop a standardized interface for AUV docking with subsea structures, as well as bi-directional power transfer to help charge sensor networks.
-
Emphasis on identifying more-efficient subsea boosting solutions has led to a number of initiatives in the industry.
-
This study examines how subsea processing (SSP) can develop into an important enabling technology for future ultradeepwater-field developments and long-distance tiebacks.
-
The costs of subsea boosting systems have been reduced by adopting three primary strategies: simplifying the system design to reduce weight and cost, simplifying the installation and intervention, and reducing complexity and risk.
