Cost-Effective Sand Control Operations Play Key Role in Revitalizing Mature Gas Field

Abstract When revitalizing mature oil or gas fields, the ability to maximize productivity while minimizing operating costs is critical. Achieving these goals becomes more challenging where sand control is required. This is especially true for complex reservoir lithology, which leads to a variety of ...

State Of International Cooperative Marine Science

ABSTRACT After nearly a century of virtually complete freedom, marine scientists have encountered growing controls. In the 1950s a few states claimed jurisdiction to 200 miles. The 1958 U.N. Convention on the Continental Shelf extended some control over marine research. Throughout the 1960s many states ...

Subsea TFL Systems - Atechnology Update

ABSTRACT This paper discusses equipment, completion, production, and maintenance operations utilizing pumpdown (or TFL - through flowline) methods on five subsea wells presently operated by Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP). These wells include the world's first subsea 4"" x 2"" well (single zone) and among ...

Exploitation Of Marine Current Energy

ABSTRACT This paper describes the results of a feasibility study regarding the exploitation of marine currents in the Strait of Messina (Italy). The high kinetic energy contents of these currents suggest the development of some exploitation system. The technical solution, proposed in the study, consists ...

Phosphorites of the Sea of Japan: Composition and Genesis

ABSTRACT Phosphorites mainly of upper Miocene age were discovered on underwater rises of the Sea of Japan. High-quality phosphorites involve diatom and terrigenous- diatom rocks substituted by phosphate. Rich phosphorites containing up to 30% P 2 0 5 were not known Jon marginal seas before. The paper ...

The Marine Resources Program of the Coastal Plains Regional Commission

Abstract The Coastal Plains Regional commission, chartered on July 29, 1967, is a multi- state regional action planning commission whose purpose is to foster and induce orderly, accelerated economic growth in the Coastal Plains of North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia The Commission is a Federal-State ...

Decommissioning Technology Challenges

Abstract The E&P industry faces a major challenge over the next 25 years in being able to decommission over 6000 platforms worldwide in an optimal manner which seeks to find the right balance among health/safety, environmental, technological, and economic considerations. This balance needs to be achieved ...

North Sea Experience With Aluminum Drillpipe

ABSTRACT Aluminum drillpipe is a speciality product that has been recommended for extended reach directional drilling operations. However, only limited operational experience has been reported from offshore drilling applications. In this paper the operational experience of using a string of 5 in. ...

An Introduction to Marine Electrical Methods: Towed Resistivity & Towed Induced Polarization Applied to Marine Geotechnical Problems

Abstract The geoelectric methods of DC resistivity and induced polarization (IP) have had a long history as complementary geophysical tools with which to remotely explore the earth. Pioneering work on both techniques dates to earliest part of the last century. Resistivity had gained industry acceptance ...

Modern Electronic Surveying And Navigation For Offshore Applications

ABSTRACT Raydist ""T"" and Micro-Omega are electronic phase comparison systems for marine and aircraft radiolocation and precision navigation. Both systems employ important new advances in electronics technology. Raydist ""T"" is an outgrowth of Raydist DR-S, a range-range radiolocation system widely ...

Laboratory Biological Studies: Making Them Appropriate for Predicting the Effects of Offshore Oil and Gas Operations

ABSTRACT This paper examines the worldwide problem of assessing the environmental impact of oil and gas exploration by means of laboratory studies. Widely referenced papers used in environmental impact reports are reviewed in the light of more recent studies for applicability to the oceanic environment. ...

The Construction Of Artificial Islands In The Beaufort Sea

ABSTRACT Recent discoveries 'of petroleum along the northern coastal areas of Alaska and Canada's Northwest Territories have promoted interest in exploration in the shallow waters of the Beaufort Sea. During the period 1972-1975, Imperial Oil Limited has constructed six earth fill islands in water ...

Dredging for the Offshore Industry: Environmental Management Strategies

Abstract Projects related to the offshore industry are often involved with the realization of complex infrastructures in sensitive marine environments. These projects show serious concerns about the preservation of environmental values, strong demands on assessment of impacts, strict controls on work ...

To Instrument the Ocean: National Data Buoy System

ABSTRACT The Stratton Commission report, released this past January, documented the results of more than two years of study and investigation of the priorities and methods by which government and industry should develop the potentials of the seas. This report of the Commission on Marine Science, Engineering ...

Communicating Uncertainties In Major Projects-A Struggle For Existence To CEOs And Presidents

Abstract Organisations executing major capital projects often face significant problems in meeting set project objectives, leading to top managers being considered scape-goats and laid off. The paper discusses why and how this phenomenon takes place and remedial strategies for how to cope with this ...

Effect of Shale Bedding Plane Failure On Wellbore Stability - Example From Analyzing Stuck-Pipe Wells

ABSTRACT: Field A in Bohai Bay, China, was developed with high angle and horizontal wells. The development drilling had been hindered by severe stuck-pipe problems experienced in several wells in a short period. Drilling experience showed that the main problem was from the shale formation that directly ...

Canyon Express: Design and Experience on High-Rate Deepwater Gas Producers Using Frac-Pack and Intelligent Well Completion Systems

Abstract Subsea well completion design and implementation in TotalFinaElf's Aconcagua Field and Marathon Oil Company's Camden Hills Field posed unprecedented challenges. Water depths in the area of planned development (up to 7209 ft) were greater than for any well previously completed in the ...

Design of a New Concept of Single-Point Mooring for Very Deep Waters

ABSTRACT The MONOPILE is a new concept of single point mooring/loading system developed for application in 350 mw.d. in the Northern North Sea by Tecnomare and Aker Engineering as a result of a joint research project funded by Norsk Agip. The concept consists? of a slender column extending from the ...

French Shelf Sand and Gravel Regulations

ABSTRACT Important quantities of sand and gravel lay on the French continental shelf, particularly in the Channel and on the Atlantic coast. The extracting activities have been increasing in the last ten years. However, only very small companies using rather small dredges carry on their activities. Mining ...

Evaluation of Environmental Effects Associated With Sidecast Dredging

ABSTRACT Sidecast dredging has been employed annually in the New England region for the past four years. Operation of the dredge is restricted to inlet channels and ocean sand shoals. Physical and chemical analysis of sediment samples from eighteen navigation projects confirm that the dredged material ...
