... All-electric completions go beyond just replacing multiple hydraulic control lines with a single electric cable: They open the possibility of controlling conventional equipment such as gas lift valves or chemical injection valves with much higher precision with control from topside of any...

... based on the fabrication base case, that the FOSS topside has been integrated onto the hull at the fabrication yard. Based on the recommended T&I methodology presented in this paper, it can be concluded that the GE FOSS (810MW, HVAC) can be transported from Asian fabrication yard to California west...

... is complex and can be divided into five main pillars: wells’ plugging and abandonment, subsea structure decommissioning, umbilical/risers/flowlines decommissioning, topside removal, and jacket/hull decommissioning. The processes and alternatives depend on the field's characteristics, such as water depth...

..., Process The hybrid conductor-supported tripod utilizes the new well conductors to support the wellheads, extends to the existing tripod topside to support the production facilities, and resists lateral loads from the new wellheads. Such hybrid conductor-supported tripod takes advantage of the axial...

... with trawl protection, a manifold module for connection to flow lines, a boosting pump module and an umbilical termination assembly. Production on the Vigdis Field is currently limited by the capacity in the production lines and pressure drop across the topside chokes. Reservoir deliverability is limited...

... Abstract There are still few subsea water removal systems, but looking at deeper offshore scenario the conventional topside water removal and treatment configuration is not acceptable, either from the economic or technical point of view. Increasing water cuts penalizes field revenue outcome...

... Lifting a heavy topside (superlift) for the integration with the Hull has always been a challenge for any mega project. Methods of lifting, skidding, lowering down for integration and final load distribution must be carefully studied before selecting the best possible method. Once the method...

... was a processing capacity of 60 000 barrels of liquids with a requirement of a not to exceed topside weight of 6000 tonnes arranged on one deck level. This weight was used in sizing the hull giving the topside designers an early layout area limitation. Conventional proven solutions were used as platform building...

... cost effective solutions and strive for standardization of products and interfaces. The AES initiative aims to have system approach and examine the impact on all elements of a subsea development, i.e. covering topside, umbilical, SPS and downhole etc. This will ensure the benefit of an all-electric...

... Hydraulic Pressure Signature (Control Line Pressure versus Time) Several topside attempts to open and close the safety valve by increasing control line pressure to maximum (600 bar) were not successful. Engineers concluded that the problem was most likely one of the following: a malfunction...

.... No Standard communication standard do not exist for neither topside nor subsea in systems installed before 2005 and communication throughput tends to be in the lower range of kilobit pr. second. A large portion of existing wells are experiencing operational problems related to performance degradation...
