... Abstract The installation of the two Albacora Manifolds, made them the deepest Subsea Production Manifolds ever installed. These Manifolds are designed for installation and operation at 1000 meters water depth and were installed at 620 meters in the Aibacora field, Campos Basin offshore Brazil...

... two novel components: (1) augment the state-space to yield a bi-linear system, and (2) an autoencoder based on a deep neural network to linearize physics reservoir equations in a reduced manifold employing a Koopman operator. Recognizing that reservoir simulators execute expensive Newton-Raphson...

... and uncertainties of the key drivers that affected well productivity have remained ambiguous within the GSA. This paper investigates the variable importance including completion parameters and geological factors controlling the recoverable hydrocarbon potentials via unsupervised-manifold-learning algorithms...

... Abstract This paper presents the successful design and installation of the EHTF (Electrically Heat Traced Flowline) PLEM (Pipeline End Manifold) using the newly built, highly capable pipelay vessel, Seven Vega. This was achieved by taking advantage of Seven Vega's reel lay firing line...

..., although the need for wellhead eventual repositioning is explainable, it is not rare to realize that final wellhead position would allow somehow grouping or clustering of at least some production wells. Manifold-Based Architectures Considering that reducing quantity of the risers may allow...

... Abstract In order to select a suitable foundation for large central manifold in LingShui17-2 deep-water gas field, on the basis of analysis of bearing capacity of subsea production system foundation and installation capacity of installation resources, this paper compares two major deep-water...

... The focus of this paper is to present and discuss the key attributes of a cluster-type compact modular manifold (cluster type) design using new and innovative methods to integrate existing technologies in a drive to cut CAPEX, OPEX and delivery time. A subsea production manifold plays...

... the fractal dimension (D) of the curve, according to the relationship between D and JRC to achieve the quantitative JRC. The applicability of JRC-JCS shear strength model in manifold element program is explained by Mohr-Coulomb theory. The relationship between the JRC and the friction of structural plane...

... Abstract: We developed a numerical manifold method (NMM) model for analysis of coupled hydro-mechanical processes in porous rock containing discrete fractures. Using a non-conforming mesh approach, fractures are conveniently discretized by dividing NMM mesh covers along fracture traces...

... ABSTRACT: A validation study of the Particle-based Numerical Manifold Method (PNMM) for wave propagation problems is performed. PNMM is proposed by introducing the concept of particle into the Numerical Manifold Method (NMM). PNMM has potential to simulate the microstructure and heterogeneity...

This process of pressurizing the slurry is accomplished using a device called a pressure exchanger. The pressure exchanger functions...

... Abstract In this study, we developed a new Numerical Manifold Method model for the analysis of coupled hydro-mechanical processes in fractured, porous rock. The fractures are considered as porous media with nonlinear behavior of hydraulic and mechanical properties involving both direct (poro...

... Abstract Material interfaces and typical boundary conditions are boundaries influencing the existence, uniqueness and stability of numerical solutions of water flow in heterogeneous media. The Numerical Manifold Method (NMM) with a two-cover-meshing system is an ideal method to handle...
