Economics of Subsea Production Systems in Enhancing the Development and Application of Shallow Water Marginal Gas Field
As the global economy continues to grow and energy demand continues to rise,the consumption of oil and gas resources is increasing at an unprecedented rate.The revitalization of marginal gas fields in the vicinity of operating gas fields has become the focus of industry attention.The article discusses the development model of subsea production system,and summarizes its main components and application characteristics.Through the iterative analysis of the key influencing factors of development cost,operation fee,and commissioning time,as well as the comparison of the comprehensive barrel cost,the results show that the development mode of subsea production system significantly reduces the comprehensive barrel cost compared with that of the fixed platform mode,significantly improves the internal rate of return,and thus raises the lower limit of development of difficult-to-use reserves and activates the potential of the marginal gas field,which provides a solid support for the protection of China's oil and gas resources and energy security.
