Abstract: There is described subsea apparatus and a method for processing fluid from a well. In an embodiment, a pipeline may be arranged to carry the multiphase fluid containing liquid and gas from the well. An outlet extending through a wall of the pipeline may let gas out of the pipeline from said region and through the outlet to separate said gas and liquid. A compressor may be connected to the outlet to compress the separated gas. Separated liquid may be conveyed along a sloping portion of the pipe to a low point in the seabed terrain, and may be conveyed to a pump for boosting the flow of liquid. The pump may be located in an excavated hole or glory hole below the seabed.

Abstract translation: 描述了用于从井中处理流体的海底装置和方法。 在一个实施例中，管道可以布置成承载来自井的含有液体和气体的多相流体。 延伸穿过管道的壁的出口可以使气体从所述区域流出管道并且通过出口分离所述气体和液体。 压缩机可以连接到出口以压缩分离的气体。 分离的液体可以沿着管道的倾斜部分输送到海底地形的低点，并且可以被输送到泵以促进液体流动。 泵可能位于海床下方的挖掘孔或荣耀孔中。
