Statoil with partners Petoro and OMV have started the world’s first wet gas compression on the seabed of the North Sea Gullfaks field.
The unique technology will increase recovery by 22 million barrels of oil equivalent (oe) and extend plateau production by around two years from the Gullfaks South Brent reservoir.
Statoil is the first company to apply subsea gas compression.
Subsea compression has stronger impact than conventional platform-based compression. It is, furthermore, an advantage that the platform avoids increased weight and the extra space needed on the platform for a compression module.
Subsea compression is an important technological leap to further develop the concept of a subsea factory.
The advantage of a wet gas compressor is that it does not require gas and liquid separation before compression, thereby simplifying the system considerably and requiring smaller modules and a simpler structure on the seabed.
The system consists of a 420-tonne protective structure, a compressor station with two five-megawatt compressors totalling 650 tons, and all equipment needed for power supply and system control on the platform.
Extensive preparations had been made on Gullfaks C before the subsea compressor could be started, including modifications and preparation of areas as well as installation of equipment.

In the start, I was open with you propecia before and after has changed my being. It has become much more fun, and now I have to run. Just as it is incredible to sit.
