SUBSEA INNOVATIONS FEATURED heavily in the technical sessions organized by the ONS Foundation. A recurring theme at the virtual event was the drive toward lower-cost, more compact, more efficient, and more remotely operable subsea equipment. The solutions presented were a response to challenges identified last year by the ONS Technical Committee following the cancellation of the 2020 Offshore Northern Seas conference in Stavanger. Topics included use of new equipment and 'smart' IMR to cut subsea opex, and whether this can be accomplished via collaborations; and technologies to help make marginal field tie-ins more profitable, with a reduced offshore installation scope.
