New Challenges in Deepwater
• Ultra-deep water and remote locations• Harsh environments• Small and/or sub-economic accumulations • Viscous oil, low energy drive and lift • High cost drilling & infrastructure• Lack of local logistics / service industry
Deepwater fields getting more complex: no single technology will “unlock”
Perdido Key Features
