Pre-salt, Technology, RevitalizationAbstract
After all the efforts made by Petrobras and the Industry in implementing the Santos Basin Pre-salt Hub, we arrived at another challenge: keeping this oil province operating for longer than initially planned. Several studies and strategies are underway within the company to achieve this objective, whether through the implementation of Complementary Projects, or through major Revitalizations: in both cases, different architectures and technologies are seen today as having great application potential, showing a disruptive scenario in relation to conventional architectures: in these new scenarios, architectures and technologies such as: sharing of wells, whether through trunklines, PLEMs (Pipeline End Manifolds), SKIDs and Subsea Production Manifolds or injection, emerge with attractiveness; underwater hydraulic and electrical distribution; multiphase pumping systems, water-oil and gas separation, capture and injection of desulfated water, underwater multiphase measurement; and arrangements with long tie-backs. This work describes ongoing studies to make these projects viable, through the application of these technologies.
