Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of utilizing a floating platform in deep water as a combination drilling/workover and production platform. More particularly, the present invention is directed to the use of a floating platform (preferably, a semisubmersible) in 1000 feet (305m) to 3000 feet (915m) of water, which is interconnected to completed wells of a template by flexible risers using a reverse loop configuration, by adjusting the mooring of the platform to position it directly over a template to permit additional drilling or workover without curtailing production from wells of other templates.
- a floating platform preferably, a semisubmersible
- a method of performing drilling or workover operations in relation to and production from a plurality of well templates according to the precharacterising portion of claim 1 is known from US 3 327 780.
- the invention provides a method of performing drilling or workover operations in relation to and production from a plurality of well templates from a floating platform in deep water, the method involving moving the floating platform between a plurality of said well templates, and producing from one or more completed wells of a first well template interconnected to the platform by means of one or more risers whilst simultaneously performing drilling or workover of one or more wells of a second well template, characterised by said one or more risers being looped or otherwise having sufficient flexibility to remain so connected whilst said platform is moved between templates, said movement taking place without the need to interrupt production therefrom and by tightening and slackening mooring lines.
- a first prefered method according to the invention further comprises positioning said platform directly above the first one of said templates by tightening and slackening the mooring lines of said platform, drilling one or more wells through said first template, completing said well(s), and drilling one or more wells in said second template without interrupting production from said first template.
- the platform is used simultaneously as a production and a workover platform, said method further comprising curtailing production from said second template, conducting a workover of the well(s) of said second template without interrupting production from the well(s) of said first template, and restoring the well(s) of said second template to production.
- the method of the present invention provides reduction in costs by eliminating the need for a separate drilling platform. Further, this method takes advantage of the lower costs associated with floating platforms and enables early initial production from a first well template while additional drilling is performed on a second or subsequent template.
- the same floating platform is used for workovers to reduce maintenance costs without interrupting production from wells of other templates.
- the floating platform can be deballasted for maintenance without curtailing production.
- the present invention incorporates the "benefit" of the mobility of the platform resulting from mooring in deep water (normally considered a drawback), to enable the platform to perform the additional drilling and workover functions.
- moored in water on the order of from 1000 to 3000 feet (305 to 915 meters) deep, there is sufficient flexibility in the moorings to permit the position of the floating platform to be adjusted to lie directly above any of several well templates positioned on the ocean floor for drilling or workover.
- Templates may be spaced apart by 300 feet (91.5m) without causing the riser to deviate from vertical by more than 17° (in 1000 ft water depth, 6° in 3000 ft), an angle easily accomodated by flexible risers. By configuring the flexible risers in a reverse loop, even these relatively small angles will be substantially reduced. This combined flexibility in moorings and production riser capability also permits the floating platform to be deballasted to permit certain portions that normally occupy subsurface positions to extend above the surface for inspection and maintenance, without curtailing production.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic side elevational view of a floating production platform utilizing a method in accordance with the invention, the drilling/workover position being shown in solid line, the normal production position being shown in phantom.
- the method in accordance with the invention is adaptable for usage with any floating production facility. It is preferred that a semisubmersible platform 12 be utilized in this method.
- a plurality of mooring lines 14 (typically eight or more, only two have been shown to simplify the drawing) secure platform 12 in position above templates 16 and 18 by virtue of attachments 20 to the ocean floor.
- Flexible production riser(s) 26 interconnect template 16 to platform 12.
- a rigid production riser section 28 traverses the zone (typically 20 to 30 feet) that is subjected to wave battering to extend riser life.
- the flexible riser 26 is depicted in the Figure in a reverse loop configuration that enhances the flexibility of the system.
- the use of a flexible riser obviates the need for motion compensation devices typically required with rigid risers and a floating production platform.
- the reverse loop configuration increases the amount of both lateral and vertical movement of which the platform is capable.
- the flexible riser 26 may be a single conduit carrying the consolidated flow from a manifold located in proximity to the template 16 if subsea wellheads are used; or the flexible riser may be a bundle of conduits carrying production from the individual wells to wellheads located on the platform 12.
- Platform 12 is ghosted into its normal position generally centered above its well templates 16 and 18.
- the position of the platform may be adjusted to bring it directly above one of the well templates 18 as shown in the Figure.
- This mooring adjustment might be accomplished, for example, by coiling and uncoiling the mooring lines to and from winding drums (not shown).
- the flotation columns of platform 12 can be deballasted in calm weather to enable portions of the platform normally occupying subsurface positions to be raised above the level of the water for inspection and maintenance, as necessary.
- the flexibility of the mooring system and production risers enables this maintenance to occur without disengaging the risers or curtailing production. Further, should it be necessary to deballast from the operational to the survival mode for a hundred year storm or the like, no adjustment or disconnection of the production risers is necessary to accomodate the change of platform position.
- the present method can accomodate four (or more) separate well templates with associated satellite wells. If four templates are used, it is preferred that they be generally positioned at the corners of a square. Such a combination drilling/workover and production platform could accomodate on the order of 32 wells with a combined production of about 80,000 barrels of oil per day.
