TORDIS FIELD: COST-EFFECTIVE DATA ACQUISITION FOR A SUBSEA FIELD DEVELOPMENT

摘要

The Tordis oil field is located in Block 34/7 on the Norwegian continental shelf, 11 km northwest of the Gullfaks C platform at a water depth of 200 m. Subsea development was approved in 1991, and the field was developed by use of a subsea manifold with production and injection satellites tied back to the Gullfaks C platform. The field comprises five producing wells, and two water-injection wells planned. Oil is piped to the Gullfaks C platform and offloaded to tankers while gas is piped via Gullfaks C and Statfjord C platforms into the Statpipe pipeline system to customers in Emden, Germany, and Zeebrugge, Belgium.
