AbstractDeepwater production well design and equipment installation presents a host of challenges for operators. One of the major problems is the uncontrolled heat transfer to outer annuli and heat loss from the production tubing which can be detrimental to the integrity of outer annuli. This can reduce the well productivity in case deposition of paraffin and asphaltenes occurs, and could contribute to the formation of gas hydrates. Vacuum insulated tubing (VIT) has had limited success but… Show more
