Subsea flow assurance

Deepwater development can represent hostile or difficult flow environments. We can help diagnose and remediate subsea flow assurance challenges such as scale, paraffin, asphaltene, hydrates, and naphthenates.

Why Onesubsea flow assurance?

OneSubsea specialists’ collective expertise covers every aspect of the fluid journey, addressing

  • fluid characterization
  • fluid rheology
  • pressure management
  • multiphase flow and slugging
  • artificial lift, including multiphase boosting
  • organic solids—wax, asphaltenes, and hydrates
  • inorganic solids—sand and scale
  • production chemicals

With this holistic approach, you can build a thorough, consistent, and sound subsea production system that suits your needs, avoiding designs that are overly conservative or that do not properly address overall flow assurance requirements.

Core benefits

Application

  • We rapidly formulate development architectures that efficiently evolve into a robust development concept
  • Facilities development with full reservoir knowledge to avoid overdesign
  • Greater transparency between engineering and financial operators, providing dollar-based (not barrel-based) answers

Features

  • Full range of reservoir representations, from simple decline models to fully integrated options
  • Static and dynamic modelling, dynamic calibration, and network coupling
  • Production forecasts, including improved and enhanced oil recovery (IOR and EOR) assessments
