Abstract:Depending on factors like environmental conditions, reservoir characteristics, number of wells and facility payload, a number of different floating production units are used in the major deepwater regions. For remote deepwater areas, FPSO's can be considered a proven and reliable field development solution. Subsea wells, drilled and completed by a MODU, can be tied back to the FPSO or a cluster of subsea wells can be manifolded and tied back to the FPSO. When dry completions are a preferred solution, a Dry Com… Show more
