Some recent examples (II)

SWIT - Seabed Water Injection and Treatment. Pilot testing. Subsea treatment ofraw seawater, providing high quality injection water while avoiding flowline costs

Downhole Energy Generator: Perform onshore qualification of the technology andprepare for a pilot installation in a well on the NCS. Laboratory testing andenvironmental testing of energy generator performance. Full scale testing in arepresentative multiphase flow loop setup. (Tiller)

Develop and commercialise Typhoon Valve, low-shear valve concept for optimizedpetroleum separation and improved multi-phase flow control. Qualify a separationfriendly valve that reduce droplet brake-up and formation of oil/water emulsions.Improve efficiency of separation processes.

Chemical tracers for production monitoring. Permanent, wireless and reliabledownhole measurement systems for inflow monitoring and control. Faster andeasier access to continuous inflow information without the intervention of downholetools.

eDrilling qualification and demonstration. A complete system for simulating,

monitoring and visualising drilling operations in three dimensions. Real timedecision support. Partners: HPD, Sintef, First Interactive, Aker MH. Support byCoPh

Riserless Well Intervention. Composite Cable Well Intervention. All electric subseatree. Integrated sand handling and subsea separation (Tordis). Next generationsubsea gas-liquid separation for deep water.

Development and qualification of technical solutions for anelectrically contr. subsea x-mas tree

Project description

The scope of the electric Xmas Tree Pilot project is toconvert one of the electro-hydraulics trees in theongoing Tyrihans development to electric operation.

Install the X-mas tree on the Tyrihans Field

The main components of the system are:

Electric Subsea Control Module (eSCM). Communicationand power central, with local battery.

Electric actuators (EA) Electric motor power from theeSCM. (Not incl. the SCSSV)

Subsea harness for connecting the above devices(System power, CANbus communication and motorpower)

Hybrid Riser Solution for Deep Water & HarshEnvironments - Phase 2

Project description

Continuation from the Phase 1 Hybrid Riser project

Tow-out of riser towers was initially identified as the most challenging obstaclefor extending the hybrid riser tower technology to harsh environments.

The submerged tow method developed in phase 1 appears very attractive, and

analysis shows no significant stress or fatigue problems even in stormconditions.

The main task in Phase 2 will be the model test focusing on towing operationsand possible vortex induced vibrations (VIV) during tow-out.

VIV in cross current has been identified as a potential problem

Outline scope of work: System & Component Design

Perform In-place & Tow-out Analysis

Controlled Mud Pressure (CMP) DualGradient Drilling JIP AGR Subsea

Project description

Controlled Mud Pressure (CMP): nextstep in developing Dual Gradient Drilling(DGD)/Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD)

technology

CMP is based on AGRs Riserless MudRecovery (RMR/DGD) system for use ona floater

CMP can be commercially applied from500 meter to deepwater wells

The DG is used to ensure preciseannulus/Bottom Hole Pressure (BHP)control, with lighter Blanket fluid in theriser, and heavier drilling mud in the well

By adjusting the Blanket fluid/mud levelin the riser, accurate BHP control is

introduced
