Challenges in Handling Increased Water Production in Matured Gas Condensate Facilities By Wally Georgie From Maxoil Solutions It is often the case when developing gas condensate fields, the facilities to separate and treat produced water are not fully considered in the design.  This is due to the fact that most gas condensate fields will not produce […]

This presentation examines the post-treatment management of Oil & Gas NORM (predominantly Radium-26 & Radium-228 in oil producing facilities and Pb-210 in gas producing facilities) within Australia compared with other mature jurisdictions with radioactive and nuclear material handling industries. Oil and gas radioactive waste storage in Australia is not subject to any prescriptive restrictions with […]

In the current challenging market one of the first areas to suffer are graduate programs and graduate recruitment. This responds to immediate needs and pressures without recognizing the future impact when growth returns, i.e. the challenge to rebuild without breadth, core capabilities, Company knowledge and young talent to support the expansion. The better solution is […]

Performance Prediction and Management of a Degraded Mooring System. In 2013 OMV commenced an inspection campaign to baseline the condition of the mooring for the FPSO Raroa in the Maari field off New Zealand. During this campaign extensive damage was discovered in a number of the mooring legs. This damage threatened the integrity of the […]

Title: RVI REVOLUTION. How it's reducing risk, time & costs in our industry.   Abstract: Remote Visual Inspection (RVI) has evolved from a 'nice to have' to an industry expectation. In fact, it's such a focus in some areas for RVI that a benchmark target of 2020 is the date set for confined space entry […]

Optimising Pipeline Inspection Frequency With a Simple Probabilistic Method by Rex Hubbard from Atteris. The integration of historical flow assurance assessments and corrosion engineering enabled an ageing flowline’s past corrosion condition to be estimated, however the resulting deterministic estimate of pit depths would have required a near-term inline inspection campaign. A simplified probabilistic estimate of historical […]

The Digital Oilfield, Process Visualisation and Automated Surveillance – Getting Value From Your Data. by Henry Gordon-Wright The oil and gas industry has led the world in the development and utilisation of “big data”.  Beginning with seismic data in the 1960s, the industry now generates and processes petabytes of data every day.  Whilst dealing with terabytes of […]
