Abstract:
ABSTRACT The China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC), established in October 1982, is the sole Chinese company dealing with offshore oil exploration, development, and production. It has four regional corporations, and four specialized corporations, as well as seventeen joint venture corporations. CNOOC has four representative offices outside China. Since the Sino-foreign cooperation for offshore oil exploration and development in China started, 360,000 line km of seismic survey have been shot, thirty-nine oil and gas bearing structures have been found, fifteen oil fields have been evaluated as having large hydrocarbon accumulations, nine oil fields have been developed and put into production, 179 exploratory wells have been drilled, and CNOOC has signed thirty-nine contracts with a total of forty-five foreign companies from twelve countries. There are five laws and regulations in the PRC affecting offshore oil development and marine environmental pollution. In accord with these laws and regulations, CNOOC has reviewed four environmental impact statements for offshore oil fields received from its regional corporations. CNOOC has made oil spill contingency plans for the Cheng-Bei offshore oil field in Bo-Hai, and the Wei 10-3 offshore oil field in the Gulf of Bei-Bu. Some oil spill combating equipment is owned by the Bo-Hai Oil Corporation and the Nan-Hai West Oil Corporation, selected on the basis of the crude oil characteristics.

Abstract:
With the rapidly increasing global energy needs, offshore oil production has become an attractive source of energy. Supplying offshore oil production installations is a complex logistics problem that hinges on many factors with significant uncertainties. So, it is critical to provide the necessary supplies and services without interruption. In a typical offshore oil production effort, oil companies charter most or all drilling units as well as offshore supply vessels (OSV). The type and duration of charter contract has direct impact on the project budget as vessels market is closely correlated with the world market crude oil price which can have daily significant fluctuations. As the region of West Africa is one of the world’s busiest offshore exploration and oil production markets employing 12% of the world’s fleet, exploring its issues, was taken to study the relations between daily OSV rates and crude oil price. The research results presented in this paper show correlation between OSV daily rates and crude oil price with broader fluctuations in crude oil price.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT In anticipation of the Beaufort Sea's first two offshore production islands, Alaska's North Slope oil producers recently expanded their oil spill recovery tactical plans and equipment. To seek regulatory approval for offshore oil production, industry responders joined agency regulators and made plans to clean up as much as 225,000 barrels of oil from potential blowouts over 15 days. Response technicians are configuring new and existing skimmers, vessels, and barges on the North Slope to implement those planning standards. This paper outlines the oil spill tactical plans and equipment that Alaska's North Slope oil industry recently assembled in seeking regulatory approval for the first offshore production islands in the Arctic. The operators of North America's largest oil fields are beginning the first production from oil wells separated from roads and most spill response vessels. For example, the new Badami production pad lies on the Arctic coast more than 25 miles from the Prudhoe Bay facilities, across river courses and roadless tundra. Eight miles of ice-infested sea will separate the proposed Northstar and Liberty production islands from response vessel berths. The new fields regularly experience waves, cold, and ice invasions that constrain oil recovery efforts. Yet regulatory approval to begin oil production requires that the industry have plans and equipment to clean up all the oil that may enter open water, even from the largest spills, within 72 hours.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2008.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 117-118).
This thesis presents an approach to applying Systems Architecture methods to the development of large, complex, commercial systems, particularly offshore oil and gas productions systems. The aim of this research was to assist BP in the development of concepts for a multi-billion dollar oil production system, particularly in the unprecedented deep water arctic locations prone to seismic activity, as well as in existing fields that must be extended. The thesis demonstrates that these systems can be decomposed and analyzed using rigorous, methodical system architecture thinking that archives and represents tacit knowledge in several graphical frameworks. The thesis breaks the architecture of oil and gas production systems into two problems. The first problem is the architecture of one facility and one reservoir; a classic problem of assigning function to form. The second problem is the architecture of multiple facilities and multiple reservoirs; a classic problem of connection and routing. For the first problem, the production process is decomposed using Object Process Methodology (OPM). The decompositions provide a methodology to capture industry knowledge that is not always explicitly stated and provides a framework to explore the entire architectural design space. The thesis then describes how these decompositions of general and specific oil systems can be used to develop software models, using the meta-language tool OPN (Object Process Network), that successfully generate thousands of architecture concepts. This set of feasible architectures can be prioritized and better understood using metrics in an effort to down-select to a handful of preferred concepts to be carried forward for more detailed study and eventual development.
(cont.) The approach to the second problem demonstrates that even a modest set of facilities and reservoirs have a huge number of connection possibilities. This space of connection possibilities is large and daunting, and typically is not fully explored. To solve the second problem the thesis presents two models that generate all the possible connection schemes between elements in a system, in this case oil facilities and reservoirs. It is then demonstrated that these possibilities can be prioritized through the use of metrics. The thesis presents a method that can identify new concepts, highlight preferred sets of concepts, and underline patterns common to those concepts. This method increases the architects' overall knowledge and understanding of the entire space of possibilities, and ensures that all options are considered in the development of complex systems.

Abstract:
Seabed environmental monitoring programmes have been conducted at oil installations in the North Sea for many years. Such studies seek to determine the areal extent of the spread of contaminated cuttings and effects on assemblages of benthic organisms. Survey programmes usually follow a prescriptive programme with respect to the numbers of samples, mesh size and level of taxonomic identification. This thesis examines the effects of altering these survey components on the information content of three commonly used ordination methods, PCA, DCA and CA, with the aim of determining the minimum necessary expenditure to show the same outputs. The use of microbial bioassays was investigated as a potential alternative means of assessing the extent of infaunal disturbance. Minimum number of replicates. When analysing data from a strong environmental gradient, one replicate sample per station provided the same visual information as the total data set of two replicates. The DCA and CA procedures provided outputs which were easily interpretable ecologically, but the PCA biplots were difficult to interpret. Analysis of data from a weak environmental gradient required a higher number of replicates for each technique and outputs were more variable at low replicate numbers. Taxonomic resolution. When infauna were aggregated to the taxonomic level of class, the information content of the three ordination methods was the same as recorded for species level. However, at the taxonomic levels of order and phylum the information on the bi-plots was difficult to interpret. Although this suggests that there exists the potential for reducing the cost of analysis, further corroboration with different data sets would be required. Sieve size. Primary screening of 0.5 mm mesh fauna by a 1.0 mm mesh may be a more cost effective strategy than either a 1.0 mm or 0.5 mm fraction although there was some loss of information on the ordination bi-plots.

Full text
Abstract:
Offshore oil and gas exploitation is principally conducted using dry or wet tree systems, otherwise called the subsea Xmas tree system. Due to the shift to deeper waters, subsea production system (SPS) has come to be a preferred technology with attendant economic benefits. At the centre of the SPS is the subsea control module (SCM), responsible for the proper functioning and monitoring of the entire system. With increasing search for hydrocarbons in deep and ultra-deepwaters, the SCM system faces important environmental, safety and reliability challenges and little research has been done in this area. Analysis of the SCM reliability then becomes very fundamental due to the huge cost associated with failure. Several tools are available for this analysis, but the FMECA stands out due to its ability to not only provide failure data, but also showcase the system’s failure modes and mechanisms associated with the subsystems and components being evaluated. However, the technique has been heavily challenged in various literatures for several reasons. To close this gap, a novel multi-criteria approach is developed for the analysis and ranking of the SCM failures modes. This research specifically focusses on subsea tree-mounted electro-hydraulic (E-H) SCM responsible for the underwater control of oil and gas production. A risk identification of the subsea control module is conducted using industry experts. This is followed by a comprehensive component based FMECA analysis of the SCM conducted with the conventional RPN technique, which reveals the most critical failure modes for the SCM. A novel framework is developed using multi-criteria fuzzy TOPSIS methodology and applied to the most critical failure modes obtained from the FMECA evaluation using unconventional parameters. Finally, a validation of these results is performed using a stochastic input evaluation and SCM failure data obtained from the offshore industry standard reliability database, OREDA.

Full text
Abstract:
The acquisition of representative subsea fluid sampling from offshore field development asset is crucial for the correct evaluation of oil reserves and for the design of subsea production facilities. Due to rising operational expenditures, operators and manufacturers have been working hard to provide systems to enable cost effective subsea fluid sampling solutions. To achieve this, any system has to collect sufficient sample volumes to ensure statistically valid characterisation of the sampled fluids. In executing the research project, various subsea sampling methods used in the offshore industry were examined and ranked using multi criteria decision making; a solution using a remote operated vehicle was selected as the preferred method, to compliment the subsea multiphase flowmeter capability, used to provide well diagnostics to measure individual phases – oil, gas, and water. A mechanistic (compositional fluid tracking) model is employed, using the fluid properties that are equivalent to the production flow stream being measured, to predict reliable reservoir fluid characteristics on the subsea production system. This is applicable even under conditions where significant variations in the reservoir fluid composition occur in transient production operations. The model also adds value in the decision to employ subsea processing in managing water breakthrough as the field matures. This can be achieved through efficient processing of the fluid with separation and boosting delivered to the topside facilities or for water re-injection to the reservoir. The combination of multiphase flowmeter, remote operated vehicle deployed fluid sampling and the mechanistic model provides a balanced approach to reservoir performance monitoring. Therefore, regular and systematic field tailored application of subsea fluid sampling should provide detailed understanding on formation fluid, a basis for accurate prediction of reservoir fluid characteristic, to maximize well production in offshore field development.

Abstract:
As perspectivas de aumento da produção nacional de petróleo, após as recentes descobertas do pólo pré-sal, e o consequente aumento do número de pontos de escoamento via modal marítimo, vêm tornando os sistemas logísticos de suprimento das refinarias nacionais e da exportação dos volumes excedentes cada vez mais complexos. Além destes aspectos, há que se considerar a curva de produção de água, que cresce ao longo da vida útil de um reservatório de petróleo, influenciando na sua qualidade. Diante deste contexto, é notória a necessidade de se criar um processo de gestão de estoques, que seja capaz de definir os seus níveis ideais, prever os estoques e a qualidade do óleo armazenado, bem como sugerir o tamanho dos lotes para a sua retirada, para suportar o processo de tomada de decisão quanto à programação de navios para o escoamento da produção, de modo a garantir a sua continuidade, atendendo às especificações de qualidade requeridas, além de considerar a análise do trade-off entre os custos do transporte marítimo e o custo de oportunidade do óleo armazenado. Este trabalho apresenta o desenvolvimento e o início da implantação de um processo de gestão de estoques na área de Exploração e Produção de uma empresa integrada do segmento de petróleo e gás, onde se observou a necessidade do desenvolvimento de um simulador para prever a qualidade e o estoque em unidades marítimas de escoamento de petróleo. Inicialmente, a maioria das variáveis de entrada no modelo será determinística, porém, recomenda-se que, no futuro, sejam incorporadas as demais aleatoriedades, de modo que o simulador seja capaz de capturar a natureza estocástica do processo e sua complexidade.
The perspectives in the rise of the national production of petrol, after the recent discoveries of the pre - salt pole and consequently the rise in the number of points of drainage via maritime modal have been turning the logistics systems of supplements of the national refineries and the exports of the exceeding volumes more and more complex. Further more one must consider the curve in the production of water that rises along with the production in a living reservoir of petrol influencing in its quality. Taking this context into consideration it is notorious that it is needed to create a process of managing stocks that is able to define its ideal levels , forecast the stocks and the quality of storied oil, as well as suggesting its withdrawal to support the process of decision making related to the programming of ships for the flow of production so as to guaranty its continuity regarding the specifications of quality required besides considering the analysis of its trade off between the costs of maritime transport and the cost of the opportunity of stored oil. This paper presents the developing and the beginning of the implementation of a managing process of stock in the area of upstream of an integrated company in the gas and petrol segment where there was the necessity of development of a simulator to preview the quality and the stock in maritime unities in the flow of petrol. To begin with most of the variables of entry in the model will be determining but it is recommended that in the future all the other variables are incorporated so as the simulator is able to capture the stockiest nature of the process and its complexity.

Abstract:
Dans l’attente d’une augmentation de la part des énergies renouvelables dans le mix énergétique, les énergies fossiles, telles que les hydrocarbures, restent encore la première source d’approvisionnement énergétique de l’Homme. La raréfaction des hydrocarbures sur le continent conduit les industriels à se tourner vers l’offshore. Ainsi, aux Etats-Unis (1er pays producteur de pétrole au monde en 2015), la production pétrolière offshore (principalement concentrée dans le Golfe du Mexique) représente plus de la moitié de la production nationale totale de pétrole. La France, quant à elle, se tourne désormais vers l’exploration de sa très grande zone offshore s’étendant sur les quatre coins du monde (notamment au large des côtes guyanaises). Une telle importance économique ne doit pas passer sous silence la dangerosité de l’exploitation pétrolière offshore. L’explosion du Deepwater Horizon en avril 2010, au large des côtes de la Louisiane (Golfe du Mexique ; Etats-Unis) en est une parfaite illustration (11 salariés tués, endommagement de l’écosystème, victimes collatérales, etc.). Le droit doit pouvoir appréhender efficacement les risques générés par l’exploitation des hydrocarbures en offshore. L’étude comparative des législations française et états-unienne met en exergue les carences du droit français. L’exploitation des ressources minérales du plateau continental des Etats-Unis, la répression des déversements illicites d’hydrocarbures et, la réparation des dommages qui en résultent, sont régies par des lois fédérales spéciales. A contrario, l’exploitation du plateau continental et de la Zone économique exclusive française s’inscrit dans un cadre législatif et règlementaire plus général. Il apparaît donc nécessaire de proposer une réforme de la législation actuelle. Dans cette optique, ce travail a vocation à émettre des propositions de réforme. La nouvelle législation française spéciale doit être pensée dans une approche systémique. Les éléments qui composent le système doivent interagir. Le premier élément est un régime optimal de prévention qui, s’articule autour de la sécurité des travailleurs et des installations. Le second élément est un régime de répression des infractions à la législation de prévention et, du délit de pollution par les hydrocarbures. Le troisième élément est un régime d’indemnisation civile de plein droit des conséquences dommageables de l’accident pétrolier (lorsqu’il n’est pas couvert par le régime exclusif d’indemnisation des accidents du travail) et du déversement d’hydrocarbures. Responsabilités pénale et civile concourent par ailleurs à la prévention par la dissuasion, cela en vue d’une meilleure internalisation des risques dans la politique managériale des entreprises pétrolières et parapétrolières intervenant sur les sites
Waiting for a complete change to the development of renewable energies, fossil energies, such as conventional oil and gas, remain still the primary source of energy supply. The rarefaction of conventional oil on the continent has lead major oil companies to turn to the offshore. Thus, in the United States (First oil producer country in the world in 2015) the offshore oil exploitation (mainly concentrated in the Gulf of Mexico) represents more than half of the national oil production. France, as for it, turns now to the exploration of its very great offshore zone extending on the four world’s corners (particularly, off the Guyana’s coasts). This significant economic development should not overlook the dangerousness of offshore oil activities. The explosion of Deepwater Horizon in April 2010, off the Louisiana’s coasts (Gulf of Mexico, The United States) is a perfect illustration (11 killed employees, ecosystem damaged, collateral victims, etc). The Law must be able to frame the risks generated by the offshore oil activities. The comparative study of French and American legal systems highlights French law’s gaps. The exploitation of the American continental shelf’s mineral resources, the repression of unlawful oil discharges and, the remedies of damages, which result from it, are governed by special federal laws. A contrario, the exploitation of the French continental shelf and exclusive economic Zone is governed by general laws. It thus appears necessary to promote a reform of the current legislation. Accordingly, this work is to put forth reform proposals. The special French new legislation must be worked out in a systemic approach. The elements which compose the system must interact. The first element is an optimal prevention that is articulated around the security of the workers and the installations. The second element is the repression of the offenses to the legislation of prevention and, unlawful oil discharges. The third element is a strict liability for the damages result from oil accident (when they are not covered by the exclusive liability for the damages result from occupational accidents) and oil spill. Criminal and civil liabilities also contribute to the prevention by the deterrent for better consideration of risks in the management of oil companies and others companies involving in offshore oil activities

Abstract:
PETRÓLEO BRASILEIRO S. A.
O presente trabalho apresenta uma análise termodinâmica dos processos de captura e reinjeção de CO2, que se tornaram indispensáveis à produção de óleo e gás nas instalações de petróleo offshore no Brasil desde o início do desenvolvimento dos campos do pré-sal. O petróleo dos reservatórios da camada pré-sal da Bacia de Santos apresenta uma particularidade importante, quando comparado com o petróleo dos campos pós-sal do Brasil. A composição do gás natural do pré-sal apresenta grande teor de CO2, podendo ultrapassar 15 por cento, enquanto que a composição típica do gás natural dos campos pós-sal apresenta teor de CO2 abaixo de 1 por cento. Isto exige que equipamentos e operações de processamento do petróleo sejam mais complexos, pois devem ser capazes de: (i) separar o CO2 do gás produzido, (ii) comprimir as correntes de CO2 e de gás natural com baixo teor de CO2 e enviá-las para seus diversos destinos (reinjeção, gas lift, exportação etc.). Consequentemente, com a introdução destes novos processos para captura e injeção do CO2, houve aumento da demanda energética nestas unidades. Este trabalho visa estudar os processos envolvidos na captura e reinjeção de CO2, uma vez que utilizam novas técnicas e tecnologias pouco divulgadas na literatura acadêmica. Busca, também, contribuir para o cálculo do consumo adicional energético nas plataformas de produção de petróleo offshore, tipo FPSO, devido à inclusão da captura e reinjeção de CO2. E, por último, apresenta uma breve análise do impacto ambiental que tais processos podem causar, considerando a emissão de poluentes atmosféricos, como CO2 e CH4, principalmente.
This work presents a thermodynamic analysis of carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and reinjection processes, which have become indispensable for oil and gas production, particularly in the Brazilian offshore pre-salt fields. In comparison to the Brazilian post-salt reservoir, the petroleum from the Santos Basin pre-salt reservoir has a much larger CO2 content, which can exceed 15 percent, as opposed to less than 1 percent in the post-salt case. This peculiarity demands more complex operational equipment and processes that: (i) separate the CO2 from the produced gas; (ii) compress both the CO2 and low content CO2 natural gas streams and (iii) direct them to their subsequent destinations (reinjection, gas lift, exportation etc.). Consequently, these new capture and injection processes increase the energy demand on these production units. The present study aims to describe the processes involved in the CO2 capture and reinjection, since there is a lack of references in the literature about these new techniques and technology. Furthermore, it contributes to the evaluation of the additional energy consumption of an offshore Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading unit (FPSO), due to the inclusion of processes related to the capture and reinjection of CO2. Finally, a brief analysis is made on the environmental impact from these processes, considering the additional emission of atmospheric pollutants such as CO2 and CH4.

Abstract:
Offshore hydrocarbon resources have been developed for many decades, and with technology improvements, many fields which were once impossible to develop, are now economically and technologically feasible. This has led to a growing difficulty in determining the legislative and regulatory framework for resources that straddle the recognized borders between two states. In this paper, we examine a successful framework agreement governing the transboundary resources between the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) and Norway in the North Sea, and the agreement between the United States and Mexico governing the Gulf of Mexico. Following the 2013 Energy Reform, the Mexican energy sector has been revitalized, leading to greater exploration, development, and production than ever before. This means that in the near future transboundary resources may be licensed for production, bringing the issues highlighted in this paper to the attention of multiple government and international entities. This paper seeks to recommend improvements to the transboundary framework in the Gulf of Mexico based on the successful framework agreement utilized in the North Sea. This paper begins by introducing international law for offshore resources in Part II. Part III discusses the offshore regulatory regimes in the U.K. and Norway, analyzing how the two states have successfully used bilateral agreements to facilitate cooperation regarding effective exploitation and apportionment of costs from cross-boundary offshore oil and gas projects in the North Sea. Part IV discusses the offshore regulatory regimes in the United States and Mexico and analyzes the current transboundary agreement in place for the Gulf of Mexico. Part V compares the transboundary agreement governing the North Sea and the same governing the Gulf of Mexico. We highlight the major differences in the agreements and suggest changes to the Gulf of Mexico agreement based on the successful North Sea agreement. Finally, this paper concludes and provides key policy recommendations to improve the rules and regulations surrounding the exploitation of transboundary hydrocarbons in the Gulf of Mexico.
