Long Distance Field Constraints Long Distance Field Constraints

• Typical target distances:

– 200 km for oil – 600 km for gas

L I

• Large Investments

– Umbilical Main Cost Element of Control System

• Instrumentation Critical

– Flow Assurance, Water, Pressure, Temperature – Inhibitor Injection Monitoring – Vibration and Leakage Monitoring

• Environment protection high focus, Arctic,

Australia, Egypt, Norway,

• Typically for gas:

– Continuous MEG Injection, 4” ‐ 8” lines typically Continuous MEG Injection, 4 8 lines typically – Strong drive to expand systems with future gas compression

• Typically for oil:

– Pumping / boosting needed – Water removal – Local seawater injection (raw seawater) 10

Subsea compression Wh t th d i ‐ What are the drivers

• IOR

– Accelerated production Accelerated production – Maintain production as reservoir depletes – Utilize existing infrastructure and extend the field life time

• Flow assurance
• Flow assurance

– Maintain gas velocity to avoid liquid accumulation in multiphase flow – Hydrate and wax.

• Subsea to beach

– Compensating pressure drop in transport system – Avoid surface installations Avoid surface installations – Environmental issues at harsh conditions

• CAPEX / OPEX considerations

Subsea Processing Systems

Subsea Gas Compressor & Drive A Siemens - FMC co-operation

Marinization features:

• minimal auxiliaries
• seal less design
• seal-less design
• magnetic bearings
• no gearbox

Compressor requires only power as supplied utility Siemens ECO‐II compressor (track record)
