Paper presented at the Offshore Technology Conference, May 6–9, 2024
Paper Number: OTC-35418-MS
... Abstract Deepwater wells in offshore West Africa traverse through a complicated faulted block with sand bodies ranging in 10s of meters of thickness. A horizontal or deviated configuration allows wells to intersect and produce from multiple sand formations at once. This also brings...

... Abstract The tropical waters of West Africa is a top growth region for floating, production, storage and offloading units (FPSO) deployment and is the home to approximately one-quarter of the world's operating FPSOs. This study shows that a typical FPSO operating in this region with a nameplate...

... the standardization of FPSO hull with 2MMbbls storage capacity for West Africa. The FPSO hull in West Africa is better to be standardized than ones in other sites, for most of new-build FPSOs in the world are in West Africa and many of their storage capacities are 2MMbbls. In design procedures, we focus...

... concept for large new-build FPSOs in West Africa. The single deck topside is a common concept in the platform of small production capacity, while it is not applied to large new-build FPSOs. Generally, multiple deck topside has been introduced to large FPSOs to carry a lot more equipment within allowed...
