Interview Rethinking Subsea Production Systems: How Electrification is Changing the Game
Schlumberger’s Technology Manager for Production Systems Hebert Heidenreich discusses maximizing value from subsea assets with all-electric production systems.
Agile subsea production systems (SPS) from OneSubsea deliver the responsiveness, functionality, and certainty that a lifetime of subsea production demands by using the industry’s most dynamic and flexible subsea production systems.
Agile SPS enhances subsea performance from appraisal through abandonment to unlock the full economic potential of the field. This agility considers the total asset journey from day one to maximize the value of an asset over time and provide a new level of customer collaboration.
Agile SPS facilitates operator-supplier alignment at every stage of the field development life cycle, combining standard, configurable subsea production system components with life-of-field optimization to improve reservoir performance.
Throughout the project life cycle, the ability to quickly evaluate development solutions, configure product platforms, and deliver life-of-field solutions is critical. Agile SPS provides the responsiveness, functionality, and certainty you need to ultimately strengthen the business case and optimize economic viability in your basin or reservoir.
From project teams and subsea development contractors to changes from natural turnover and cultural discipline, gaining alignment can be challenging when sanctioning a project.
Agile SPS, however, eliminates these challenges through constant collaboration. Proven, orchestrated workflows and programs and reduced time to delivery through simplified call-off contracts create alignment, eliminate errors, and minimize risk.
Agile SPS enables you to adapt to changes in basin and reservoir performance at any stage in the life cycle. Our collaborative field development service, coupled with Agile SPS and its standard configurability, enables seamless updates without disruption to delivery certainty and ROI through maintaining production and increasing recovery. By adapting quickly to reservoir and fluid changes, you can maintain production and increase recovery.
Our unique domain knowledge and technical expertise can enable advancement in new technology to unlock new frontiers, such as 20,000-psi and all-electric solutions.
Delivering with certainty is a key enabler to the success of any project. Agile SPS eliminates costly engineering and manufacturing delays while maximizing functionality and configurability. Standard designs create an optimized value chain through an always-ready plug-and-play capability with standard supply chain and manufacturing processes.
An agile product streamlines manufacturing and enables a consistent, unwavering delivery schedule to bring certainty to the plan.
