1.1ProjectDescri pti on
ADMAOPCOintendstoachieveadditional100MBPDOilproductionfromLowerZakumfield(50
MBPDeachtobeproducedfromTh-IV&V).Toachievethisproduction,40newinfillwellsare
required of which 32 would be oil producers, 4 gas injector wells
and 4 water injector
wells.TheGasinjectorsarerequiredforThammamaVreservoirforcrestalgasreinforcementandare
crucial for achieving 50 MBPD production from Zakum Thammama-V.The
design will source 120 - 200 MMSCFD of Injection gas from the
existing GIP Train-3 compressor
dischargeheaderlocatedatZKCGIP.ThegasflowstotheZK-182platformthrougha~11kmlong
12 subsea pipeline.An 8 spur line is tapped from this sub-sea
pipeline near ZK-300 (subsea tie-in) and routed to the ZK-300
topside.
AtZK-300,thegasreceivedwillbeinjectedintothetwonewgasinjectorwellsdrilledfromZK-300

injectors drilled from this tower (30 - 80 MMSCFD each well).
WorleyParsonsiscarryingoutFrontEndEngineeringandDesignformodifications/installationsat
ZKCGIP, as well as ZK-300 and ZK-182 and pipelines.1.2Scope &
Purpose Detailed finite element analysis is carried out using
ABAQUS software for the 12in Main Line from
ZK-GIPplatformtoZK-182platformofapproximatetotallengthof10.932kmwhichhaspotentialto
bucklelaterallyasestablishedinbucklinganalysispreliminaryreport,Ref.[1].TheFEanalysis
considers the 3D profile of the seabed as well as the supports at
all crossing locations.The in-depth lateral buckling analysis was
carried out to study the pipeline behaviour during operating
condition.ThelateralbucklinganalysiswasperformedinaccordancewithDNVOSF101,Ref.[2]
