... Abstract This paper presents the repurposing of a non-insulated, carbon steel service line into a production line for a deep-water oil field, successfully carried out without any plant shutdowns and continued for several months and under several operating conditions. The main differences...

... of 50 m. The deposition rate was about 10 m/h. The three lines are still successfully operating. Periodic monitoring of the thickness with Ultra Sonic probes every three months shows that no significant erosion occurred.

In addition, the size of the reservoir might not justify the installation of a service line or a second production line to generate a loop which could allow preservation by means of flushing...

Nevertheless, due to high CAPEX of the "base case" option, TOTAL decided to investigate alternative solutions for the preservation of the subsea production line during shut-down, among which an EHT system appeared as potentially attractive. Therefore...
