The goal of this project is to develop an ultra-high conductivity power cable suitable for use in undersea umbilicals. The overall objective is to design, build, and test an...
The Letton Hall Group managed six tasks which together mature subsea multiphase metering technology.These tasks involve evaluating the impact of deposition and erosion within...
The University of Tulsa is performing hydrate formation and plug characterization in their unique testing facilities. The data will be used to benchmark predictive models both...
Regulations require the deployment of a SCSSV in Offshore wells. Current SCSSV designs are not available for XHPHT conditions. Rice University graduate students have been...
High strength riser steels which resist fatigue damage in a sour corrosive environment offer significant weight advantages for deepwater structures. Southwest Research Institute...
Researchers at the University of Utah evaluated methods for management of waxes in the presence of hydrates. Active management strategies for both wax and hydrates are required...
The project will contribute to the evolution of geophysical imaging technology by providing a realistic benchmark geological model containing multiple geophysical attributes...
