in Norway last year (2020), with a prototype supported initially by an ROV. The technology will be ready to be deployed on commercial applications and operations in Q3 2021, Carlsen says. Kongsberg Ferrotech is initially targeting Southeast Asia where it says there’s a relatively large amount of wet gas production where internal corrosion is a common issue. PTTEP of Thailand has been our partner through the development of the Nautlus, and will also be the pilot client for introducing the service in the region, says Carlsen.In tandem with commercialising the composite repair system, has been working

ABB’s system would be suitable for 4-12MW applications, says Asmund Mæland, Global Head of Subsea, ABB Energy Industries, such as a OneSubsea wet gas compressor (WGC).In fact, earlier this year, ABB joined forces with OneSubsea and performed a full-scale string test using ABB’s VSD (which varies the power to meet the needs of the pump/compressor) on OneSubsea’s multiphase WGC6000 compressor.The VSD and compressor operated submerged

tolerant, does not require wellstream preprocessing, and is adaptable to the varying conditions over the life of the field.“Our subsea multiphase compression system is a robust, compact and cost-efficient solution that will help Shell unlock the full potential of the Ormen Lange Field. Our unique wet gas compression technology can also help customers lower their carbon footprint,” said Don Sweet, president OneSubsea.OneSubsea multiphase compression technology results in a simpler, more affordable and easier-to-install subsea compression system. By lowering backpressure on the reservoir, this

The system, which is a key element of the Roxar Subsea Wetgas Meter and is based on microwave (MW) resonance technology, provides quantitative and qualitative real-time salinity measurements in many types of field conditions but, particularly, in the high gas volume fraction (GVF)/wet gas flows that characterize wet gas fields. “With oil and gas wells being produced over a broader range of process conditions and water salinity and conductivity a key operational parameter for reservoir management and flow assurance, the timing for our new salinity system couldn&rsquo

back to two platforms, Naga and Pelikan, in approximately 90m water depth. Bison and Iguana will tie back to the Pelikan platform and Gajah Puteri will tie back from a controls perspective to the Naga platform. The Gajah Puteri well is the longest step out at 21km. Each well will have a wet gas meter, which is part of Proserv’s scope of supply and the system will be capable of future expansion to accommodate potential future infill drilling. Delivery of the first phase of equipment is scheduled for May 2018. Work for the project will be carried out in various Proserv

Statoil, Partners Start Subsea Gas Compression
Statoil with partners Petoro and OMV have started the world´s first wet gas compression on the seabed of the North Sea Gullfaks field. The unique technology will increase recovery by 22 million barrels of oil equivalent (oe) and extend plateau production by around two years from the Gullfaks South Brent reservoir. “We are very proud 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
