Abstract: The invention relates to the drilling of subsurface oil and gas wells and the installation of subsurface equipment (11). A lifting vessel 7 brings heavy equipment such as Xmas trees or manifolds and wet parks this equipment (11) on the seafloor (5) during good weather when the significant wave height is low. The equipment (11), once it is underwater, has much lower weight and may easily be moved into place onto a wellhead (10) at an appropriate time using lower capacity lifting gear. The timing of this operation is much less sensitive to weather conditions because the equipment does not need to pass through the splash zone (sea surface). This makes for efficient use of expensive drilling rig time, and allows for acceleration of production of first wells on the template as critical heavy lifts could not else be done until rig has left the location. (FIG. 1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for monitoring strain data on a subsea wellhead and associated tubing especially during a drilling or completion operation when the wellhead is connected via a riser to a drilling rig. The bending stresses on the wellhead assembly can be modelled and monitored, based on strain data from strain gauges attached to the conductor, surface casing and possibly also inner tubing. The strain gauges are located where maximum bending stresses occur, at around seafloor level. Data from the strain gauges is transmitted by radio to a receiver unit on the template, from which it may either be transmitted to the surface or stored and retrieved by divers or subsea vehicles.

Abstract: The invention relates to the cleaning of a wellbore including a reservoir liner 3 and an upper portion 2 of the wellbore, by running in only one string into the wellbore and performing a reservoir liner cementing operation, displacing the cement 7 with completion fluid 8, followed using the same string to circulate mud in the upper completion, perform an inflow test on the reservoir liner 3, wash the upper completion and displace it to completion fluid 8.

Abstract: Systems and methods contain fluids discharged from a subsea well or at the surface by capping the well blowout with a pre-positioned capping device and diverting flow of hydrocarbons to a secondary location for disposal/handling in situations where casing integrity is compromised preventing ability to close in the flow of the hydrocarbons. The capping device includes at least one blind shear ram and is separate from a blowout preventer. Different personnel offsite of a rig drilling the well may have access and control to operate the device.

Abstract: In the process of suspending a subsea hydrocarbon well (1) after finalizing the completion operation and prior to stimulation of the well and putting the well on production, preinstalled upper and lower glass plugs (11, 12) are used as temporary barriers in the tubing. The plugs allow various tests to be performed before the lower plug (12), below the production packer (10), is broken; the upper plug (11) located above the downhole safety valve (13) then forms one of the barriers required to suspend the well whilst the Blow Out Preventer (BOP) is removed and Xmas tree installed, at which point the upper plug (11) is broken.

Abstract: The invention relates to the alignment of a tubing hanger (14) when installed in a subsea wellhead (11). Sensors (39a,b; 40a,b) detect when the orientation is correct and send a signal to the surface to provide positive confirmation of correct orientation, before a XMT (15) is installed on the wellhead (11) and the HP riser (31) removed, etc.
