Riserless system makes cost-effective subsea well intervention a reality

摘要

There are approximately 4,000 oil and gas producing subsea wells across the globe, and this number is increasing. With many now more than a decade old, intervention is crucial to extracting all possible recoverable oil. Subsea well intervention is a time-consuming and costly activity, with rig costs running up to US $1 million a day. A newly introduced riserless intervention system aims to close the value recovery gap between subsea and dry-tree fields by providing a safe, riserless, remotely operated subsea well intervention solution that costs significantly less than using a rig.
