Long-distance tie-backs
Unique value proposition (UVP)
We aim to achieve a situation where operators can tie-back remote fields to existing subsea facilities over longer distances than is currently possible. We are currently identifying design drivers to define the optimal distance for passive insulated, actively heated and cold flow transport pipelines for thermal management and their smart combination with subsea boosting. In particular, by conditioning oil-dominated well-streams in cold flow systems, remote fields can be connected to central host facilities using uninsulated small-diameter transport pipelines over very long distances - valuable for arctic subsea developments. This technology enables the prospect of total subsea production facilities with no requirement for manned platforms, transforming the economics of field development.
Key Benefits
- Reduce development costs by enabling the connection of remote fields to central facilities with small-diameter pipelines, eliminating the need for costly manned platforms.
- Improve safety and operational reliability in arctic environments through advanced thermal management that combines passive insulation, active heating, and cold flow systems.
- Maximize resource extraction from remote locations by increasing the scalability and flexibility of subsea developments with extended tie-back distances.
