Many floating production vessels now operating off Africa and elsewhere were converted or built decades ago and are approaching or exceeding their original design lives. The monitoring equipment installed during that era is equally dated, leaving integrity teams dependent on manual ultrasonic inspections, retrievable corrosion coupons, and intrusive probes.
The Adaptive Gas Lift System enables continuous optimization of oil production without the need for invasive and costly well interventions, and its unique retrievable design reduces operational downtime while enhancing both the safety and sustainability of gas lift operations.
Manuel Arroyo and Stan Calame join Jim Cahill to discuss a new white paper, “Mitigating Emissions from Wellhead to Custody Transfer,” to highlight technologies and solutions that help oil & gas producers drive emissions reductions and improve sustainability.
The oil and gas producer selected Emerson’s TopWorx GO Switch Series 73 for its wellhead position verification application. These widely used and trusted lever-less limit switches have no external moving parts, no springs or cams, and no reed element.
In upstream oil and gas operations, maintaining well integrity is a matter of safety, compliance, and production efficiency. A leading provider of integrated well construction solutions in Indonesia faced these challenges head-on and partnered with Emerson to elevate their approach to wellhead pressure monitoring.
For producers, transporters, and distributors in the hydrocarbon value chain, Emerson provides a portfolio of proven fugitive emissions solutions.
The Micro Motion Coriolis Oil & Gas Metering Recommended Practices for Upstream Allocation whitepaper describes best practices for the selection and installation of these meters—both sensors and transmitters—based on performance level requirements and costs.
The Roxar Rapid Adaptive Measurement technology enables multiple calculations to be performed concurrently to yield the best measurement results for the oil, gas, and water in the produced fluids.
One leak detection technology, ultrasonic noise detection, can provide constant monitoring across a wide area as it “listens” for the release of pressurized gas. The Rosemount Incus Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detector enables rapid detection of leaks.
In this Emerson Automation Experts podcast, Kelda Dinsdale joins me to discuss innovations in multiphase flow measurement with the Roxar 2600 Multiphase Flow Meter and to enable easier setup and installation, and ongoing accuracy.
Read this case study based on an offshore oil & gas producer who gained efficiencies and increased reserves through their digital transformation with the DeltaV SaaS SCADA application.
Multiphase flow meters measure the individual flow rates of oil, gas, and water flowing from oil & gas production wells. Expro’s Ali Abuikhzam shares background on their collaborative work with Emerson.
