... that traditionally have been manually operated. This paper introduces a system for optimizing production through remote monitoring and quantifying offshore sand production in an "industry-first" case study. The operation was conducted in 2022 on a NUI in the North Sea. The asset was anticipated to produce more than...

..., and regulators. Norway is leading in electrification, while the UK North Sea is moving much more slowly. A coherent energy policy for the West of Shetland area addressing oil and gas developments alongside renewable energy developments appears essential. social responsibility wind energy sustainability...

... Abstract This paper presents a case study on a near-shore gas field in the Dutch North Sea for a seasonal storage scenario. A subsea development was considered, connected by pipeline to an onshore processing facility. Reservoir simulations were carried out to model the mixing of the hydrogen...

... Abstract The North Sea has always been a pioneer for the adoption of remote operations services (ROS) in offshore drilling applications. Drilling services such as Measurement While Drilling (MWD), Logging While Drilling (LWD) and/or mud logging (ML) have been performed with an element of ROS...

... Abstract Maximizing operational efficiency is a critical challenge in oil and gas production, particularly important for mature assets in the North Sea. The causes of production shortfalls are numerous, distributed across a wide range of disciplines, technical and non-technical causes...

... for offshore wind therefore presents a transformative opportunity for the North Sea oil and gas sector and the associated UK supply chain. Existing skills and infrastructure in this region can be leveraged to achieve a leading position in this emerging clean fuel source. This opportunity is particularly...

... Abstract Recently two multilateral horizontal wells have been completed offshore using dedicated multistage hydraulic fracturing completions. The first well, located in the Central North Sea (referred to as ML-CNS), was stimulated using acid fracturing; while the second well, located...

... In November 2014, a Light Well Intervention (LWI) vessel, prepared the well on Sleipner East for permanent abandonment. The Sleipner East is a gas and condensate field situated in 15/9 in the North Sea. Production started in August 1993. Operation in North Sea Abstract When setting two...

... reducing therefore the mobilization costs for worldwide deployment. The MeBo200 was deployed in the German sector of the North Sea in October 2014 to test the functionality of the seabed-based drill rig. Currently MeBo200 is being upgraded with CPT technology from A.P. van den Berg Ingenieursburo bv...

... Abstract The objective of this paper is to collate and share with the industry the technical knowledge on hydraulic fracturing and related completion practices accumulated from both operating and service companies throughout the North Sea. We will follow the evolution of completion technologies...

... Abstract A new program for the development of graduate engineers has been implemented in Denmark on a stimulation vessel in the North Sea. It is designed to provide graduate engineers with a three-year period of extensive experience in offshore operations, knowledge of equipment and designing...

... exited the North Sea. Asset liquidity (asset and corporate sales, farm-ins and licence rounds) in NW Europe is somewhat unique in an international setting and ranks second only to North America based on volume of transactions. Varying acreage entry options come with differing risks and opportunities...

... miscible gas injection projects in a variety of challenging environments throughout the world for over three decades. Numerous innovative techniques have been used to optimize oil recovery and the results have been reported in a series of publications. The focus of this paper is the North Sea, where BP...

... Abstract The scale of current marine stakeholder activity in the North Sea is such that considerable effort is required to minimise the impact of operations conducted adjacent to one another. Impacts are typically spatial – vessels wanting to work in the same physical space at the same time...

... Summary BP is committed to a long term future in the North Sea Region. Delivering this promise will rely on continued exploration and appraisal success within the basin as well as efficient and cost effective resource progression through infill drilling and enhanced hydrocarbon recovery schemes...

... Despite our advances, failures still occur from a variety of failure modes. This publication examines the present dominant corrosion and integrity issues affecting the offshore rigid and flexible pipelines and risers that exist in the North Sea, as identified from the experience of the authors...

... Abstract Harding Central is a high permeability turbidite reservoir in the Central North Sea. It has been produced with water injection for pressure support and gas injection for disposal of evolved gas since 1996. The initial oil in place has been tightly constrained by high quality seismic...
