Abstract:
The existence of protectionism policy in Malaya and Borneo had been practised by the British specifically in the oil industry during colonialism. This policy was to prevent the largest American oil corporation, from dominating the oil market in Southeast Asia. The two British oil companies, the Anglo-Saxon Company and Shell Company in the early 20th century completed their business relationship with the Dutch oil company to control the oil industry in Southeast Asia. Oil producer colonies in Southeast Asia was solely granted oil supply through British oil company to prepare the outbreak of the First World War. This marked the height of British protectionism by providing continuous oil supply to the British Navy and expanding oil exports during the First World War. Later, PETRONAS adopted protectionism and monopoly strategies to increase equity ownership of Malays in the oil and mining industry.

Abstract:
Data mining techniques are used to design effective sales or marketing strategies by utilizing sales transaction data that is already available in the company. The problem in the company is that there are many data transactions that occur unknown, causing an accumulation of data unknown sales most in each month & year, unknown brands of car oil are often sold or demanded by customers. So this association search uses a priori algorithm as a place to store data using pattern recognition techniques such as static and mathematical techniques from a set of relationships (associations) between items obtained, it is expected that can help developers in designing marketing strategies for goods in the company. Software testing results that have been made have found the most sold oil brand products if you buy Shell Hx7, it will buy Toyota Motor Oil with 50% support and 66.7% confidence. If you buy Toyota Motor Oil, you will buy Shell Hx 7 with 50% support and 85.7% confidence.

Abstract:
AbstractThe environmental impact of Shell Oil Company in Nigeria has resulted in largescale protests. Despite their peaceful nature, these protests have been met with lethal violence by the Nigerian security forces. Accusations have been levelled against Shell for liability for human rights violations, but the company has denied responsibility. Previously confidential correspondence between Shell and Nigerian officials has shown that the company repeatedly persuaded security personnel to act against protesters. The current article examines how Shell framed its desire for the Nigerian state to suppress protests against the company. It does this by analysing published documents within Stanley Cohen’s (1993) theoretical framework regarding the neutralisation of criminal acts – most notably the neutralisation technique of appealing to higher loyalties. This is a technique adopted by companies when they use the greater good as a rationale for minimising their responsibility for harmful acts. The correspondence between Shell and Nigerian officials shows that Shell continuously urged Nigerian officials to take action by referring to the company’s contribution to economic and social development in the region, even after their calls for action has been shown to result in human rights abuses. In describing these rationales, the article highlights a case of corporate-initiated state crime, a form of crime that involves corporations inducing state actors to commit harmful acts.

Abstract:
At present, global warming has aroused widespread attention, and it is recognized that the greenhouse gas produced by burning fossil energy is one of the main factors affecting global temperature. Statistics suggest that the global temperature has increased significantly in recent years, and the average temperature in the Arctic has increased by more than 1.6 ℃ in the 21st century. In order to meet this challenge, the Paris Agreement on climate change has officially entered into force, proposing to achieve a peak in global greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible, and to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions to 40 billion tons by 2030. Corresponding to the trend of green and low-carbon development, the major international oil companies have put forward new and targeted strategies.

The proceedings stand out because they are being conducted in the Netherlands, not only against Shell Nigeria, but also against the former UK and Dutch parent companies of the Shell group, as well as against the current group holding company Royal Dutch Shell Plc. The Court of Appeal, in line with the Vedanta judgment of the UK Supreme Court, makes an extensive analysis of the structure of the Shell group and, based thereon, derives (albeit limited) a duty of care for the parent company Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDS) vis-à-vis the claimants. corporate social responsibility, international environmental damage, piercing the corporate veil, EEX Regulation (recast), Brussels I-bis Regulation, Rome II Regulation

Abstract:
When the Venezuelan dictator, Juan Vincente Gómez, died on 17 December 1935, after ruling Venezuela with an iron fist for 27 years, an outburst of popular unrest and nationalistic fervour was unleashed against the foreign oil companies operating on Venezuelan soil. The dominant oil interests in Venezuela at the time were Royal Dutch Shell, the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey and the Gulf Oil Company. There were several smaller companies such as British Controlled Oilfields, a British state-owned company with a network of Venezuelan affiliates, and the Socony Vacuum Company, a New York-based company which was a significant latecomer. It was the first three aforementioned companies, however, that constituted the Big Three.1The oil companies were associated in the popular mind with the odious Gómez dictatorship and partly for this reason became the object of the people's wrath. Yet there were also practical economic and social reasons for the popular feeling against the companies. The latter paid low wages, provided miserable housing and social amenities for their workers and discriminated against Venezuelans in their employment practices.2For more than a year after the dictator's death Venezuela was in the throes of popular unrest.

Abstract:
Abstract Companies are confronted with differing public perceptions, which influence the way in which they present their social and environmental responsibilities. Our qualitative study compares the online responsibility communication of two companies from the energy sector: Shell, representing the controversial but profitable oil industry; and Vestas, representing the sustainable wind industry, the financial competitiveness of which is sometimes called into question. The website analysis reveals that both companies engage in inverted positioning. They invert perceived weaknesses into strengths: Shell highlights its social and environmental responsibilities, whereas Vestas, instead of capitalising on its potential as a CSR brand, highlights its economic responsibility. Theoretically, we integrate inverted positioning into a constitutive process model of responsibility communication. Inverted positioning might lead either to a reputational downward spiral, making a company less credible in the longer term, or the public communication of contested responsibilities functions as a self-imposed ambition that can, over time, induce substantial corporate learning processes.

Abstract:
The intricate interplay among environmental pressure groups, oil companies, and governments is revealed from the perspective of the Anglo-Dutch company Royal Dutch Shell. An examination of three environmental issues demonstrates the company's awareness of such problems and describes its efforts to contain potential damage to the degree permitted by existing technological and economic constraints. The industry view is that government measures should create a level playing field and should be effective and economically feasible. While pressure groups are skilled at calling attention to environmental problems, industry highlights the tradeoffs between different societal aims that are entailed in tackling these problems. Governments are left to fi nd the best ways to weigh conflicting interests.

Abstract:
In June 1995, a campaign by Greenpeace forced the multinational oil company Shell to cancel its planned disposal of a redundant oil installation in the Atlantic. The Brent Spar incident attracted massive publicity and was influential in changing government policy on marine disposal of waste. During and following their campaign, Greenpeace were criticised as emotive and irrational by Shell and academic scientists. This paper looks at the arguments used during the debate, using literature, interviews and questionnaires. We investigate the use of key environmental words and phrases and ask what is meant by rationality in this context. We discuss some of the lessons that should be learnt from the incident by policy makers and scientists.

Mestrado em Finanças
A Royal Dutch Shell, plc (Shell) é a maior empresa integrada no setor de Oil & Gas, em termos de ativos. Opera globalmente, no que se refere à geografia onde tem interesses, e integra no seu modelo de negócio toda a cadeia de valor. Tenta diversificar o seu negócio com uma, cada vez mais importante, presença na produção de energia a partir de fontes renováveis e no retalho de energia elétrica. A Shell tem uma recomendação de REDUZIR com um preço alvo para o final do ano de 2021 de $33.58. Um potencial de subida de 13.2% ou uma rentabilidade anualizada de 9.9%, com elevado risco. A divergência do preço atual com a nossa recomendação deve-se i) a perspetivas demasiado otimistas quanto à capacidade de conter uma segunda vaga de COVID-19 a nível global; ii) à quebra no consumo por via do confinamento derivado da pandemia da COVID-19; iii) a um excesso de petróleo no mercado; iv) ao ambiente de recessão económica a nível mundial; v) alguma alavancagem financeira comparativamente aos principais competidores diretos; vi) necessidade de manter elevados custos na otimização do portfólio de ativos por via de aquisições dispendiosas e de alienação de ativos até há pouco tempo vistos como estratégicos; vii) baixas perspetivas de aumento sustentável do preço do petróleo. A gestão pretende aumentar a sua presença no atual contexto de transição energética para fontes ambientalmente mais sustentáveis.
Royal Dutch Shell, plc (Shell, or RDS) is the largest integrated company in the Oil and Gas sector, in terms of assets. Operates globally, with regard to the geography in which it has interests, and integrates the entire value chain into its business model. It tries to diversify its businesses with an increasingly important presence in the production of energy from renewable sources and in electricity retail. Shell (NYSE, Class A:US) has a REDUCE recommendation with a target price for 20YE of $ 33.58, a potential annualized return of 9.9%, with high risk. The divergence of the current price with our recommendation is due to: i) too optimistic prospects about the capacity to contain a second wave of COVID-19 globally; ii) the drop in consumption due to the confinement resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; iii) supply glut of oil on the market; iv) the global economic recession environment; v) some financial leverage compared to the main direct competitors; vi) the need for high levels of costs in optimizing the asset portfolio through expensive acquisitions and the sale of assets that, until recently, were seen as strategic; vii) low prospects of a sustainable rise in oil price. Management intends to increase its presence in the current context of energy transition to more environmentally sustainable sources.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine the evolution of six U.S. corporate logos--Apple, McDonald's, Nike, Pepsi, Shell, and Starbucks--from each logo's inception until the newest version of the graphic emblem today. The objective is to determine the meanings that logos have for a corporation's identity, mission, and relationships, as well as the messages that logos convey to viewers (i.e., mostly customers). By "evolution" of logos here, the researcher means "ongoing transformation" of logos. The semiotic model used in this analysis is Charles Sanders Peirce's (1958(1931)) semiotic framework. Peircean semiotics is made up of a three-part paradigm of signification: the representamen (or the sign itself), the object (or "referent"--what the sign refers to), and the interpretant (the effect on the viewer, or the viewer's interpretation). Based on the semiotic data on logo evolution, the researcher found six main themes that emerged across the analyses of U.S. corporate logos. These themes are (1) Direction toward the Future, (2) Identity with Viewers, (3) Instant Recognition and Distinctiveness, (4) Consistency throughout Evolution, (5) Invocation of Change, and (6) True Representation of Corporate Identity. The ultimate conclusion of this analysis is that the communicative intent of a company, through its logo, tends to take a long time to develop. A successful logo is one that portrays the true objectives and principles of a company. For this reason, the ideal identity of a corporation tends to be built over a long period of time, which makes logo improvement "evolutionary" in nature. In all six cases, communication plays a major part in logo improvement.

ABSTRACT

Niger Delta of Nigeria is a region characterized with conflict commonly conceptualized as ‘‘petro-violence’’. This violence  between Shell and its host communities has lasted over four decades. While the activities of Shell and other oil companies destroy the ecology of the region , the oil producing communities demand improved explorative and exploitative activities of the companies, improved welfare for the people and compensation for the harm done to the ecology of the region. This work examines whether Shell can really be blamed for contributing to the conflict in the region and whether it is morally permissible for Business Corporation like Shell to engage in Corporate Social Responsibility.

Abstract:
AbstractLightweight concrete (LWC) has been used for more than 2000 years, and the technical development of waste-based LWC is still proceeding. Notably, the very first representative concrete mix of infrastructural LWC was introduced for building a family house in Berlin, Germany, a few decades ago. The unique and distinctive combination of waste-based LWC successfully creates an appealing alternative to traditional concrete aggregates in terms of durability, robustness, cost, energy-saving, transportation, environmental advantages, innovative architectural designs and implementations, and ease of construction. Numerous researchers have attempted to utilize waste materials to produce LWC, aiming to bring both ecological and economical solutions to the construction industry over the past few decades. Waste materials, such as crushed glass, waste tire rubber, masonry rubber, chip rubber, plastics, coconut shells, palm oil fuel ash, palm kernel shells, fly ash, and rice husks, possess lower specific gravity than traditional concrete aggregates. Thus waste-based LWC can be a significant replacement for conventional raw materials (cementitious material and aggregates) as it requires less strength than conventional concrete for both structural and non-structural applications. Although waste-based LWC is well recognized and has proven its scientific potential in a broad range of applications, there are still uncertainties and hesitations in practice. Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the current state-of-the-art understanding and advancement of waste-based LWC over the past decades. Furthermore, an equally critical discussion is reported to shed light on the potential benefits of LWC. We highlight how the performance of LWC has been enhanced significantly over the period, and understanding of the properties of waste-based LWC has advanced.

Abstract:
AbstractFortum Oyj and Teollisuuden Voima Oyj (TVO), the two companies that own the operating units in Finnish nuclear power plants, in 1996 formed a joint company, Posiva Oy, to deal with their nuclear wastes. This includes both the low- and medium-level radioactive waste and the high-active used nuclear fuel. Several locations were considered before the choice of Olkiluoto in 1999 and its acceptance by the municipality of Eurajoki in 2000. In 2010, the Finnish Government granted a decision-in-principle required by the Finnish Nuclear Act to Posiva Oy regarding the construction of a final disposal site for nuclear wastes including the above-ground encapsulation plant and the final disposal facility called Onkalo. In 2015, the Government granted the construction licence for this entity to be built. The site already includes the operating nuclear power plants (OL-1 and OL-2) of TVO and the OL-3 unit which has been under construction since 2005 and shall be taken into use in 2022. After several delays this is the timetable according to the most recent information in early Spring 2021 provided by TVO. Thus, Finland is the first country in the world to enter the implementation phase of spent nuclear fuel. A future challenge is the nuclear waste of possible new nuclear power plants not included in the plans of Posiva Oy.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the origins of Britain’s postwar oil strategy, which aimed at making Britain independent of imports from other great powers, especially the United States. It begins by reviewing Whitehall’s increasing preoccupation with oil as a matter of national security before 1914, including the Royal Navy’s shift to oil and the government’s purchase of a majority of shares in the Anglo-Persian Oil Company. It then examines the British experience during and immediately after World War I, when officials began pursuing two of the key objectives of British strategy—securing British majority ownership of Shell and the oilfields of Mesopotamia. The chapter concludes with an assessment of how oil influenced Britain’s war aims in the Middle East and Anglo-American competition over the region’s oil.

Abstract Just as 1995 was a critical year for the category of operational risk, it is also important for the emergence and intensification of managerial discourses about organizational reputation. Efforts to create a distinctive practice of ‘reputational management’ were catalyzed by the experience at Shell in that year (Fombrun and Rindova, 2000). The company planned to dispose of the Brent Spar oil container in the North Sea and had considered the environmental impact of different options at some length in arriving at its decision. However, Shell failed to take account of likely public attitudes to water-based disposal, and of the role of a body like Greenpeace in activating that opinion.

Abstract:
The distribution and privatization channels of the wealth from Niger Delta’s oil and gas resources are multiple. The main channels excessively favor mainly office holders, international entrepreneurs and their contractors. The rest of the population, or the less favored majority will have to cut their share of the wealth via the alternative channels which may include violent insurgencies. This work focuses on one of these alternative channels, where an Igbo community creatively sustain their access to the oil wealth. An ethnographic study of Egbema, shows that the local population modify their traditional practices to sustain the flow of the oil wealth. This modifying capacity was manifest when they creatively transformed a fishing festival that was traditionally celebrated exclusively, into a public fish bazaar. This was done to keep hold of the money received as compensation for the land expropriated for oil extraction by Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). This has implications for corporate governance, especially with regard to the relationship between companies and other stakeholders.

Abstract:
Despite considerable academic and practitioner interest in knowledge management, success of knowledge management systems is elusive. This chapter provides a framework which suggests that KM success can be achieved by designing sustainable communities of practice. Communities of practice have proven to have significant economic and practical implications on organizational practices. A growing body of literature in KM recognizes the importance of communities that foster collaborative learning in organizations and almost all KMS have a ‘network’ component that facilitates connecting people in communities of practice. Evidence has shown that communities have been a key element in KMS of many companies including Xerox PARC, British Petroleum Co., Shell Oil Company, Halliburton, IBM, Proctor and Gamble, and Hewlett Packard.

Abstract:
Abstract In 2014, SPE-167857-MS was published highlighting how Real-Time Surveillance using the Shell proprietary Production Universe (PU) application helped to reduce deferment, improve production allocation, optimize test unit capacity, and track well operating envelope in Brunei Shell Petroleum BSP (company) operations in South East Asia. Since then, there has been significant progress in the application of PU to help the company meet Wells Reservoir Management (WRFM) requirements and Operational Excellence standards in areas such as Platform Production Reconciliation, Well Modeling, Production Estimation, and Exception based Surveillance helping the company to improve their Hydrocarbon and Energy Accounting. The wider introduction of the PU application in the allocation process significantly helped in Hydrocarbon Accounting (HCA), helping company's journey in moving from monthly to daily allocation and assisting to improve the field reconciliation factor (RF). The utilization of PU has also facilitated real-time monitoring of production parameters supporting engineers to safely and efficiently operate their wells within the Operating Envelopes while adhering to reservoir management guidelines. The optimization engine of the PU has been used to maximize the production of company contributing to two major success stories of Real-Time Condensate Optimization in a Gas-Constraint system and Gas Lift Optimization in a platform with limited lift gas availability amongst the producing wells. An Integrated Production Monitoring and Optimization System (IPMOS) provides asset-wide advice on optimally producing company's well within the constraints imposed by limitations on pipeline capacity, compressor throughput, and remote operability while satisfying customer demands. PU is additionally being used in Proactive Technical Monitoring (PTM) of rotating equipment to identify the critical parameters operating outside the set limits in an exception-based format. PU alerts & alarms have been configured in a wide range of operational monitoring such as Ensure Safe Production (ESP), Chemical Injection, Annulus Pressure Monitoring(APM), Control-Line pressure, Erosion-Corrosion Monitoring System(ECMS) to alert Production Engineers in case of any discrepancy or exception-based format for them to take remedial actions. This paper will explain how each of the above applications in PU has helped company in its journey of closing its gap to potential and achieving the digital transformation of its operations.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The exploration and production of oil and gas mostly occurs in remote locations, so as to minimize human exposure and Health Security Safety and Environment (HSSE) risks. Shell Companies in Nigeria is not any different having operated for over 50 years in Nigeria with the largest footprint of all the international oil and gas companies operating in the country spanning over land, swamp, shallow waters and offshore terrains. Shell Petroleum Development Company, the operator of a joint venture (the SPDC JV) between the government-owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation – NNPC (55% share), Shell (30%), Total E&P Nigeria Ltd (10%) and the ENI subsidiary Agip Oil Company Limited (5%) focuses mostly on onshore and shallow water oil and gas production in the Niger Delta with about 60+ producing oil and gas fields and a network of approximately 5,000 kilometers of oil and gas pipelines and flow lines spread across the Niger Delta. Escravos Beach is over 60km from the closest major city, Warri, a major oil and gas zone in the Niger Delta. It is bounded by the Escravos River to the East, Chevron canal to the North and the Atlantic Ocean to the South and is covered with predominantly mangrove forest especially along the creeks and consists of a number of natural and man-made waterways (rivers, creeks and canals). Unlike most other onshore operations, this location can only be accessed via the waterways; thus requiring the rig equipment and every other equipment to be channeled via the waterways and subsequently on land to arrive at the site. The amphibious nature of this operation requires a combination of onshore and swamp requirements with increased HSSE exposure, logistics requirement and cost. This paper aims to highlight the practical experience garnered in the rig move and workover operations of Rig XYZ which operated in the Escravos Beach region.

Abstract:
Abstract The study is a combination of survey and exploratory design. It utilized primary data (questionnaire) and secondary data (as journal, articles, industry reports and newspapers) with relative contents to the topic of discuss. The questionnaire was distributed to E&P workers in three LOCs, SEPLAT, Famfa oil and Yinka Folawiyo Petroleum. IOCs respondents from Shell, Total and Exon Mobil. Ten 10 questionnaires were distributed to each making 60 and 51 questionnaires retrieved and completed. The data gathered was presented using tables and analyzed using simple percentages, frequency and mean. The study concluded that participation of indigenous companies in exploration and production activities in the country has several economic advantages which both individuals and the government can benefit from. This includes increased production (barrels), increased Gross Domestic Product of the nation, job creation/ reduction of unemployment in the country and improved human resources due to training of indigenous worker. It recommended that the local content policy of 2010 should be taken more seriously by the government and more indigenous companies should be encouraged to go into oil exploration and production to increase the availability of crude oil products in the market which will automatically lead to better GDP, reduction in capital flight and increase in individual company income.

Abstract:
In early 1997, Lakehead Pipe Line Company, Inc. (LPL) purchased the Hartsdale Terminal to better serve customers in the Chicago area by providing additional crude oil storage facilities. This terminal is located adjacent to Lakehead’s Griffith, Indiana Terminal and consists of nine crude oil tanks totaling 900,000 barrels of storage capacity. All nine of the Hartsdale tanks were constructed in 1956, are 134 ft. in diameter, and are open top with double deck style floaters. This report describes the integrity analysis of the facility and the corresponding maintenance plan that was developed. The analysis portion of this report describes the inspections that were done on the tanks, covering aspects such as weld spacing; tank settlement; interior and exterior coating failure; tank shell, bottom, and pontoon corrosion; seal wear and performance; roof drain integrity; and other OSHA and API mandates. The resulting maintenance plan is approximately a five-year window and is currently in its first year. The five-year duration was based on issues both operational and financial. A portion of the discussion is focused on the challenge of combining these two components into an overall comprehensive plan. In addition, aspects affecting the maintenance plan such as risk assessment, OSHA and API standards, and budgeting issues are described.

Abstract:
Despite of considerable research activity during the last decades considerable uncertainties still remain in prediction of Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) of risers. Model tests of risers subjected to current have been shown to be a useful method for investigation of the VIV behavior of risers with and without suppression devices. In order to get further insight on VIV of risers, an extensive hydrodynamic test program of riser models subjected to vortex-induced vibrations was undertaken during the winter 2010 by Shell Oil Company. The VIV-model test campaign was performed in the MARINTEK Offshore Basin Laboratory. A new test rig was constructed and showed to give good test conditions. Three different 38m long riser models were towed horizontally at different speeds, simulating uniform and linearly varying sheared current. Measurements were made In-Line (IL) and Cross-Flow (CF) of micro bending strains and accelerations along the risers. The test program compromised about 400 tests, which give a rich test material for further studies. In the present paper the test set-up and program are presented and selected results are reported.

Abstract:
Steel lazy-wave riser (SLWR) are attractive deepwater applications for offshore oil and gas industry. When subjected to current, both the buoyancy elements and the riser may experience Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV). Such vibrations are the result of the periodic hydrodynamic forces that are induced by the interaction of slender bodies and external fluid flow. If the vibration period is close to the natural period of the system, it can lead to fast accumulation of fatigue damage to the risers and amplified drag loads. There is a competition between the vortex induced forces acting on the buoyancy element and the riser segment due to its different diameters. The interaction of the vortex shedding from the riser and the buoyancy element depends on many parameters, such as the arrangement of the buoyancy element, aspect ratio of the buoyancy element, etc. Shell Oil Company conducted VIV model tests with a straight flexible cylinder and staggered buoyancy elements corresponding to a buoyant section of a SLWR in MARINTEK in 2011. Five different buoyancy element configurations were tested. The test data has been extensively studied (Rao, et al 2015 and Jhingran, et al 2012). The interaction of the buoyancy elements and bare riser and its influence on the riser response (frequency, displacement and fatigue damage) have been investigated. Semi-empirical VIV prediction software, such as VIVANA [4], SHEAR7 [13] and VIVA [11] are most commonly used by the offshore industry in the riser systems design against VIV loads. However, these software are not purposely designed to account for the interaction of the bare riser section and the buoyancy elements. It is of great interest to evaluate the prediction accuracy. The purpose of this study is to benchmark the VIV prediction of riser with buoyancy elements using VIVANA. The prediction is compared with Shell model test results with focus on CF responses. Uncertainty and improvement of the prediction are also discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract In the Bonga Deepwater project, while exploring subsea well intervention and stimulation campaign opportunity, the subsea Rigless intervention strategy, which has been in the SNEPCo team's technology maturation funnel for some years, re-surfaced. In the first quarter of 2017, the Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company (SNEPCo) Deepwater team led the industry to deploy the first ever riser-less technology for well intervention operations in Nigeria. The main objective was to prove the rigless intervention concept and capability in the Bonga Deepwater project. The team focused on improving production enhancement and sustaining well integrity on the Bonga Main Project by minimizing well-intervention cost without compromising process safety, achieving incident free operation, and delivered the project at 50% less than what this scope of work would have cost using a Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU). Additionally, the acid stimulations added 9,200 barrels of crude oil per day to the company's production. As with every new project, several challenges were encountered, and new ideas were developed. The team acquired a lot of learning from the planning phase, vessel mobilization to execution. These learnings have been integrated into the team's standard operating procedure and shared with other stakeholders. Additionally, the knowledge and learnings gained from this project have been harnessed in collaboration with the service provider and Original Equipment manufacturer (OEM) to modify and upgrade an existing in-house well intervention well control package (EDP/LRP) for riserless intervention access in the Bonga Deepwater project.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The current low oil price has resulted in several continuous improvement drives particularly focused on capital efficiency. With over 60 producing oil fields and approximately 700 producing wells, some of which date back to the 60s, work over operations in Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) is imperative. Having completed over twenty (20) Work Over operations in the last six years in SPDC, the importance of Work Over operations as a means to sustain production especially for relatively old, dysfunctional or non-compliant wells and keep the production funnel full at a relatively lower cost compared to new drills is more evident. Work over operations, defined as the repair and/or stimulation of existing wells in order to improve production performance presents the opportunity to maximize short term gains from already existing facilities. The objective of the workover operations on Agbada ABC and XYZ was to restore well integrity with the installation of sub surface safety valves and gas lift mandrels instead of insert orifice while assuring the development of oil and associated gas. The insert orifice had been installed on both wells to enable gas lift operations from the Agbada Associated Gas Gathering (AGG) plant since they were unable to sustain natural flow. However, due to epileptic AGG, both wells quit frequently requiring nitrogen lift with an average Non-Productive Times (NPT) of 6 months per year while Agbada XYZ was put on cyclic production and had been a pressure build-up well with at least two weeks down time per month. The workover operation was therefore proposed to replace the existing (punched) tubing, install proper gas lift mandrels for optimum performance, reduce well operating cost arising from AGG outage and/or compressor failure and restore production in the reservoir. This paper aims to discuss the cost reduction strategies such as collaboration, re-use, program optimization and operational efficiency applied in driving down Non-Productive Times (NPT) in the efficient delivery of these workover operations which resulted in <6% NPT, >30% time savings, ca. 40% cost savings and early return of wells to production.
