Subsea Production Systems

The INTECSEA Subsea Production Systems Engineering Group has emerged as the industry leader in providing services for deepwater subsea technology for water depths to 2,800 m and beyond.

INTECSEA's primary emphasis has been on subsea applications in frontier areas, notably deepwater field developments and for unusual service conditions such as high pressure and high temperature, aggressive fluids and subsea processing. These specialized technologies are firmly established within INTECSEA's extensive project experience including practical design and installation technology required for cost effective completion and operation of offshore field development facilities worldwide.

INTECSEA's capability in subsea production systems has become industry leading as functional requirements for deepwater concepts have evolved. In 1985 INTECSEA initiated several joint industry studies to develop solutions for deepwater production in the Gulf of Mexico and the North Atlantic, in which as many as 15 oil and gas companies participated. In 1992 INTECSEA was selected to manage the first phase of the DeepStar Program sponsored by Texaco. In this role INTECSEA actively participated in the efforts of a multi-discipline industry group to extend the technological production limits and develop solutions for subsea operations in water depths to 10,000 ft and greater.

As a result of these initiatives, the offshore industry has moved to subsea systems configurations that are now more modular and allow greater flexibility with reduced risk. These concepts have been implemented worldwide. INTECSEA has been able to validate these concepts via many subsea deepwater project applications.
