; (gas) and to Mongstad (oil). The riser platform also represents the future of the Johan Sverdrup field. “Our Johan Sverdrup development is based on 40 years of experience from the Norwegian continental shelf. We know that by working hard every day we are able to improve the oil and gas recovery and extend the life of our fields. During the 50 years of production from Johan Sverdrup, innovation and new technology will open up new possibilities. That is why we, for the first time in an offshore project, have more than 2500 square metres of free deck space, which will be used for

that we have been able to complete such a demanding pioneering project with start-up ahead of the original plan,” says Margareth Øvrum, executive vice president for Technology, Projects & Drilling (TPD). “Subsea processing and gas compression represent the next generation oil and gas recovery, taking us a big step forward,” she says. Statoil is the first company to apply subsea gas compression. In mid-September Statoil also started Åsgard subsea gas compression. The two projects are the first of their kind worldwide, and represent two different technologies for

alliance will further strengthen our wellstream separation technology portfolio, testing and in-house capabilities," said Alan Brunnen, head of subsea at Aker Solutions. "This brings us one step further in developing fully-fledged subsea production and processing systems that increase oil and gas recovery and lower costs for our customers." Aker Solutions is a leading provider of subsea production systems with a strong base of subsea processing technology and competence from projects including the Åsgard subsea compression development. Fjords Processing, previously

;s global Exploration and Production business line, said: “Fluid and rock characterization provides valuable data associated with the development of new and existing oil fields. We focus on gaining a deeper understanding of reservoirs to assist our customers in enhancing and improving oil and gas recovery processes. The new facility in Abu Dhabi will allow us to deliver services locally and minimize the need to transport samples out of country. Intertek has already worked on a number of Middle East reservoir projects using its laboratories in other international locations, but this investment
Siemens Subsea Products Adopts All-Electric Tube Bending
Siemens Subsea Products has chosen an all-electric tube bender from Unison to improve the quality and speed the production of the small-bore hydraulic tubes it uses on subsea hydraulic flying leads with Multiple Quick Connections (MQC), Cobra Heads and associated offshore oil and gas recovery equipment. The tubes feature complex bends of extremely high accuracy, and until now the company has either fabricated them manually or bought them in as pre-formed sub-assemblies. Siemens Subsea Products produces a wide range of subsea electric, fiber optic and hydraulic power and control systems
