    Recent Word-Wide Offshore Development: Recent Offshore Oil and Gas Fields Deeper Than 400 M

    Uploaded by

    Cuneyt Sakonder
    The document discusses recent developments in offshore oil and gas extraction. It describes how extraction has moved to deeper waters over 400m deep and the different platforms used - fixed platforms that typically operate in Arctic conditions, floating tension leg platforms (TLP), spar platforms that are neutrally buoyant, semi-submersible platforms also designed to be neutrally buoyant, and floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels. It also notes the environmental aspects of offshore oil and gas extraction.
