TRAINING OFFSHORE AND SUBSEA FACILITIES

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Subsea production wells have been around for more than 40 years. A subsea well consists essentially of a wellhead assembly and Christmas tree (sometimes referred to as a wet tree), which is basically identical in operation to its surface counterpart, with the primary exception of reliability refinements, to permit operation at the seabed. Subsea wells have been used in support of fixed installations as an alternative to satellite or minimum-facility platforms for recovering reserves located beyond the reach of the drill string or used in conjunction with floating systems such as FPSOs and FPSs. The concepts range from fixed platforms to subsea compliant and floating systems. This training presents an overview of offshore facility concepts including subsea systems and flow assurance concepts
