Today’s Petroleum Industry is being confronted with having to manage production with increasing amounts of produced water from production wells. Many engineers throughout the industry believe that good produced water management is the single most important aspect to extending the life of a producing reservoir. Providing quality measurements for monitoring fluid production in the subsea processing system will be a critical part of properly managing that production.

With the increasing regulations and changing requirements found throughout the industry, the need for new measurement techniques and more reliable technologies is even more important. This presentation will help identify the major measurement challenges with the implementation of subsea processing. It will highlight the different state of the art measurement principles and technologies that can be used in subsea processing. It will also address the gaps to improve the confidence of measurement technologies that would be needed at specific points in the subsea processing system.

This 45 minute presentation will allow the audience additional time for a question and answers on the potentially controversial subject.
