... was employed to determine and compare the optimal gathering systems configuration. Results from oil network multiphase simulations show that the well spatial disposition is highly tied to the optimal gathering system layout when it comes to oil production, cost and susceptibility to uncertainties...

... ABSTRACT Oil production in offshore fields requires large investments and projects with high complexity. When it comes to subsea layout design, wells can be connected in several different ways. A common configuration employs manifolds, in which wells are grouped in drill centers, and manifolds...

... Abstract With the increased development of deep-water oil and gas, wax deposition has become a major issue for offshore oil production. Wax deposition occurs at the inner walls of pipeline when the oil temperature is below the wax appearance temperature. This problem decreases oil production...

... Abstract A challenge facing offshore oil production is wax deposition. This has been a major issue for flow assurance in offshore fields, as it leads to increases in operational and remedial costs while suppressing oil production. Wax mitigation technologies including thermal management, wax...

... TAPS was originally designed and built for transporting 29oAPI Prudhoe Bay type crude oil from ANS to the marine terminal in Valdez. Combined oil production from ANS steadily declined since the peak output of 2.03 million barrels per day in 1988. The dwindling ANS oil production is, however...

... Janeiro state, at around 100m water depth. This depth was beyond current technology for conventional oil production, using steel jackets piled to the sea-bed. A world wide search was then made and two promising but unproven sub-sea technologies were deemed likely to stand the test of reality: Sub-sea...

... crude oil production in the Netherlands has been at a level of about 10% of the Dutch national consumption till 1982. In that year the offshore oil production commenced and in 1985 the total onshore and offshore oil production catered for some 25% of the Dutch national oil consumption. The peak...

... oil fields. Hoping to attain self-sufficiency in oil production within the next decade, PETROBRAS has been concentrating a large share of its investment in the development of two new large oil fields - Marlim and Albacora. These fields are located in Campos Basin, in a region encompassing water depths...
