Aprašymas

Technical Report from the year 2014 in the subject Engineering - Naval Engineering, Ocean Engineering, grade: A, Robert Gordon University Aberdeen (School of Engineering), course: Master of Science Oil and Gas Engineering, language: English, abstract: The Gazelle field is located offshore Kuwait in Iranian waters very close to Shat Al Arab. The field discovered with the initial exploration well in 1990. Oil production is via a steel piled jacket platform, and the export system is via FSO to a shuttle tanker. After a number of years of production, the oil rates have come off plateau with increasing amount of water cut. Field sensitivities require a new development of the Gazelle field. According to the project brief, three field developments options were proposed such as: . Refurbishment and upgrade of present system . Replacement of the oil export via the FSO and . Complete system replacement The approach used to evaluate and recommend the most suitable development concept was based on ¿ Economics (technical costs) ¿ Flexibility (project implementation) and ¿ Abandonment strategies
