***FIELD ARCHITECTURE: WELL TESTING***

For satellite wells with individual flowlines tied back to the production platform, it is often simply a matter of connecting the well flowlines to the well test manifold. A well test heater may be needed ahead of the separator that otherwise might not be necessary in the case of dry tree production.

***FIELD ARCHITECTURE: INTRAFIELD FLOWLINES: MAJOR FLOWLINE ROUTING CONSIDERATIONS : DIFFERENCE IN PIGGING REQUIREMENTS***

The platform might be best located nearer the wells requiring frequent pigging versus those that do not.

***FIELD ARCHITECTURE: INTRAFIELD FLOWLINES: MAJOR FLOWLINE ROUTING CONSIDERATIONS : DIFFERENCE IN RESERVOIR & WELL PERFORMANCE***

Some wells are capable of flowing greater distances than others due to their higher pressure or lower pressure drop (such as a high gas-oil ratio well versus a low gas-oil ratio well). This might affect where the…[Read more]
