Definitions
- topside pumping facilities constitutes a very considerable capital investment when the injectioniproduction well is situated at other than a very short distance from the surface production facility. Not only must the required flowlines for produced oil and gas be laid between the wellhead and the surface facility, but also suitable flowlines must be provided for passing the pumped seawater from the surface facility to the injection site. In addition, the vast quantity of seawater that is carried by the surface facility at any one time, together with the pumping and treating equipment for that seawater, add considerably to the weight that must be borne by the surface facility.
- the pump is most suitably a multistage centrifugal pump that is capable of delivering up to 2500 m 3 per day (or about 100 m 3 per hour) of seawater at a wellhead pressure of up to 35,000 kPa, although routine operations may require from 1500 to 2400 m 3 per day (65 to 100 m" per hour) at a wellhead pressure of 20.000 to 35.000 kPa.
- the total suspended matter (TSM) content of seawater at about 10 m above the seafloor is of the order of 0.4 mg/I. This is somewhat higher than that encountered at greater heights above the seafloor (for example. 0.04 mg/I at 60 m above the seafloor at a location where water is drawn up to a platform for injection pumping), but is still well below the "polished injection water" standard of 2 mg/I TSM. As a result, fine filtration is not believed necessary and formation plugging is not expected to be a problem.
