    BRIEF HISTORY OF OFFSHORE DRILLING AND RELATED INFORMATION ABOUT VARIOUS OPERATIONS IN THE GULF OF MEXICO AND OTHER AREAS

    Oil platform
    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    A typical offshore Oil/Gas platform.An offshore platform, often referred to as an oil platform or an oil rig, is a lаrge structure used to house workers and machinery needed to drill wells in the ocean bed, extract oil and/or natural gas, process the produced fluids, and ship or pipe them to shore. Depending on the circumstances, the platform may be fixed to the ocean floor, may consist of an artificial island, or may float.

    Most offshore platforms are located on the continental shelf, though with advances in technology and increasing crude oil prices, drilling and production in deeper waters has become both feasible and economically viable. A typical platform may have around thirty wellheads located on the platform and directional drilling allows reservoirs to be accessed at both different depths and at remote positions up to 5 miles (8 kilometers) from the platform.

    Remote subsea wells may also be connected to a platform by flow lines and by umbilical connections; these subsea solutions may consist of single wells or of a manifold centre for multiple wells.

    BASIC HISTORY______________________________________

    Offshore platform Gulf of MexicoAround 1891 the first submerged oil wells were drilled from platforms built on piles in the fresh waters of the Grand Lake St. Marys (a.k.a. Mercer County Reservoir) in Ohio. The wide but shallow reservoir was built from 1837 to 1845 to provide water to the Miami and Erie Canal.

    Around 1896 the first submerged oil wells in salt water were drilled in the portion of the Summerland field extending under the Santa Barbara Channel in California. The wells were drilled from piers extending from land out into the channel.

    Other notable early submerged drilling activities occurred on the Canadian side of Lake Erie in the 1900s and Caddo Lake in Louisiana in the 1910s. Shortly thereafter, wells were drilled in tidal zones along the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana. The Goose Creek field near Baytown, Texas is one such example. In the 1920s drilling was done from concrete platforms in Lake Maracaibo, Venezuela.

    The oldest subsea well recorded in Infield’s offshore database is the Bibi Eibat well which came on stream in 1923 in Azerbaijan. Landfill was used to raise shallow portions of the Caspian Sea.

    In the early 1930s the Texas Company developed the first mobile steel barges for drilling in the brackish coastal areas of the gulf.

    In 1937 Pure Oil Company (now part of Chevron Corporation) and its partner Superior Oil Company (now part of ExxonMobil Corporation) used a fixed platform to develop a field in 14 feet of water, one mile offshore of Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana.

    In 1946, Magnolia Petroleum Company (now part of ExxonMobil) erected a drilling platform in 18 ft of water, 18 miles[vague] off the coast of St. Mary Parish, Louisiana.

    In early 1947 Superior Oil erected a drilling/production platform in 20 ft of water some 18 miles[vague] off Vermilion Parish, Louisiana. But it was Kerr-McGee Oil Industries (now Anadarko Petroleum Corporation), as operator for partners Phillips Petroleum (ConocoPhillips) and Stanolind Oil & Gas (BP), that completed its historic Ship Shoal Block 32 well in October 1947, months before Superior actually drilled a discovery from their Vermilion platform farther offshore. In any case, that made Kerr-McGee’s well the first oil discovery drilled out of sight of land.

    The Thames Sea Forts of World War II are considered the direct predecessors of modern offshore platforms. Having been pre-constructed in a very short time, they were then floated to their location and placed on the shallow bottom of the Thames estuary.[1][2]

    [edit] Types
    Larger lake- and sea-based offshore platforms and drilling rigs are some of the largest moveable man-made structures in the world. There are several types of oil [3] platforms and rigs:

    [edit] Fixed platforms
    Main article: Fixed Platform

    A fixed platform base under construction on a Louisiana riverThese platforms are built on concrete and/or steel legs anchored directly onto the seabed, supporting a deck with space for drilling rigs, production facilities and crew quarters. Such platforms are, by virtue of their immobility, designed for very long term use (for instance the Hibernia platform). Various types of structure are used, steel jacket, concrete caisson, floating steel and even floating concrete. Steel jackets are vertical sections made of tubular steel members, and are usually piled into the seabed. Concrete caisson structures, pioneered by the Condeep concept, often have in-built oil storage in tanks below the sea surface and these tanks were often used as a flotation capability, allowing them to be built close to shore (Norwegian fjords and Scottish firths are popular because they are sheltered and deep enough) and then floated to their final position where they are sunk to the seabed. Fixed platforms are economically feasible for installation in water depths up to about 1,700 ft (520 m).

    [edit] Compliant towers
    Main article: Compliant Tower
    These platforms consist of slender flexible towers and a pile foundation supporting a conventional deck for drilling and production operations. Compliant towers are designed to sustain significant lateral deflections and forces, and are typically used in water depths ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 feet (460 to 910 m).

    [edit] Semi-submersible platform

    Platform P-51 off the Brazilian coast is a semi-submersible platformMain article: Semi-submersible
    These platforms have hulls (columns and pontoons) of sufficient buoyancy to cause the structure to float, but of weight sufficient to keep the structure upright. Semi-submersible platforms can be moved from place to place; can be ballasted up or down by altering the amount of flooding in buoyancy tanks; they are generally anchored by combinations of chain, wire rope and/or polyester rope during drilling and/or production operations, though they can also be kept in place by the use of dynamic positioning. Semi-submersibles can be used in water depths from 200 to 10,000 feet (60 to 3,000 m).

    [edit] Jack-up platforms
    Main article: Jackup rig
    Jack-up platforms (or jack-ups), as the name suggests, are platforms that can be jacked up above the sea using legs that can be lowered, much like jacks. These platforms are typically used in water depths up to 400 feet (120 m), although some designs can go to 550 ft (170 m) depth. They are designed to move from place to place, and then anchor themselves by deploying the legs to the ocean bottom using a rack and pinion gear system on each leg.

    [edit] Drillships
    Main article: Drillship
    A drillship is a maritime vessel that has been fitted with drilling apparatus. It is most often used for exploratory drilling of new oil or gas wells in deep water but can also be used for scientific drilling. Early versions were built on a modified tanker hull, but purpose-built designs are used today. Most drillships are outfitted with a dynamic positioning system to maintain position over the well. They can drill in water depths up to 12,000 ft (3,700 m).

    [edit] Floating production systems
    Main article: Floating Production Storage and Offloading
    The main types of floating production systems are FPSO (floating production, storage, and offloading system). FPSOs consist of large monohull structures, generally (but not always) shipshaped, equipped with processing facilities. These platforms are moored to a location for extended periods, and do not actually drill for oil or gas. Some variants of these applications, called FSO (floating storage and offloading system) or FSU (floating storage unit), are used exclusively for storage purposes, and host very little process equipment.

    [edit] Tension-leg platform
    Main article: Tension-leg platform
    TLPs are floating platforms tethered to the seabed in a manner that eliminates most vertical movement of the structure. TLPs are used in water depths up to about 6,000 feet (2,000 m). The "conventional" TLP is a 4-column design which looks similar to a semisubmersible. Proprietary versions include the Seastar and MOSES mini TLPs; they are relatively low cost, used in water depths between 600 and 4,300 feet (180 and 1,300 m). Mini TLPs can also be used as utility, satellite or early production platforms for larger deepwater discoveries.

    A ‘Statfjord’ Gravity base structure under construction in Norway. Almost all of the structure will end up submerged.[edit] Spar platforms
    Main article: Spar (platform)
    Spars are moored to the seabed like TLPs, but whereas a TLP has vertical tension tethers, a spar has more conventional catenary mooring lines. Spars have to-date been designed in three configurations: the "conventional" one-piece cylindrical hull, the "truss spar" where the midsection is composed of truss elements connecting the upper buoyant hull (called a hard tank) with the bottom soft tank containing permanent ballast, and the "cell spar" which is built from multiple vertical cylinders. The spar has more inherent stability than a TLP since it has a large counterweight at the bottom and does not depend on the mooring to hold it upright. It also has the ability, by adjusting the mooring line tensions (using chain-jacks attached to the mooring lines), to move horizontally and to position itself over wells at some distance from the main platform location. The first production spar was Kerr-McGee’s Neptune, anchored in 1,930 ft (590 m) in the Gulf of Mexico; however, spars (such as Brent Spar) were previously used as FSOs. Eni’s Devil’s Tower is located in 5,610 ft (1,710 m) of water, in the Gulf of Mexico, and is currently the world’s deepest spar; however, when Shell’s Perdido spar is installed (expected mid-2009), it will be the deepest ever, at almost 8,000 ft (2,400 m). The first Truss spars were Kerr-McGee’s Boomvang and Nansen. The first (and only) cell spar is Kerr-McGee’s Red Hawk.

    [edit] Normally unmanned installations (NUI)
    Main article: Normally unmanned installation
    These installations (sometimes called toadstools) are small platforms, consisting of little more than a well bay, helipad and emergency shelter. They are designed to operate remotely under normal conditions, only to be visited occasionally for routine maintenance or well work.

    [edit] Conductor support systems
    Main article: Conductor Support Systems
    These installations, also known as satellite platforms, are small unmanned platforms consisting of little more than a well bay and a small process plant. They are designed to operate in conjunction with a static production platform which is connected to the platform by flow lines and/or by umbilical cable.

    [edit] Particularly large examples
    The Petronius Platform is a compliant tower in the Gulf of Mexico, which stands 2,000 feet (610 m) above the ocean floor. It is one of the world’s tallest structures.

    The Hibernia platform is the world’s largest (in terms of weight) offshore platform, located on the Jeanne D’Arc basin, in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Newfoundland. This Gravity base Structure (GBS), which sits on the ocean floor, is 364 feet (111 m) high and has storage capacity for 1.3 million barrels (210,000 m3) of crude oil in its 278.8-foot (85.0 m) high caisson. The platform acts as a small concrete island with serrated outer edges designed to withstand the impact of an iceberg. The GBS contains production storage tanks and the remainder of the void space is filled with ballast with the entire structure weighing in at 1.2 million tons.

    [edit] Maintenance and supply
    A typical oil production platform is self-sufficient in energy and water needs, housing electrical generation, water desalinators and all of the equipment necessary to process oil and gas such that it can be either delivered directly onshore by pipeline or to a floating platform and/or tanker loading facility. Elements in the oil/gas production process include wellhead, production manifold, production separator, glycol process to dry gas, gas compressors, water injection pumps, oil/gas export metering and main oil line pumps.

    Larger platforms are assisted by smaller ESVs (emergency support vessels) like the British Iolair that are summoned when something has gone wrong, e.g. when a search and rescue operation is required. During normal operations, PSVs (platform supply vessels) keep the platforms provisioned and supplied, and AHTS vessels can also supply them, as well as tow them to location and serve as standby rescue and firefighting vessels.

    [edit] Crew
    [edit] Essential personnel
    Not all of the following personnel are present on every platform. On smaller platforms, one worker can perform a number of different jobs. The following also are not names officially recognized in the industry.

    OIM (offshore installation manager) who is the ultimate authority during his/her shift and makes the essential decisions regarding the operation of the platform;
    operations team leader (OTL);
    offshore operations engineer (OOE) who is the senior technical authority on the platform;
    PSTL or operations coordinator for managing crew changes;
    dynamic positioning operator, navigation, ship or vessel maneuvering (MODU), station keeping, fire and gas systems operations in the event of incident;
    second mate to meet manning requirements of flag state, operates Fast Rescue craft, cargo ops, fire team leader;
    third mate to meet manning requirements of flag state, operates Fast Rescue craft, cargo ops, fire team leader;
    ballast control operator to operate fire and gas systems;
    crane operators to operate the cranes for lifting cargo around the platform and between boats;
    scaffolders to rig up scaffolding for when it is required for workers to work at height;
    coxwains to maintain the lifeboats and manning them if necessary;
    control room operators, especially FPSO or production platforms;
    catering crew, including people tasked with performing essential functions such as cooking, laundry and cleaning the accommodation;
    production techs to run the production plant;
    helicopter pilot(s) living on some platforms that have a helicopter based offshore and transporting workers to other platforms or to shore on crew changes;
    maintenance technicians (instrument, electrical, mechanical).
    [edit] Incidental personnel
    Drill crew will be on board if the installation is performing drilling operations. A drill crew will normally comprise:
    Toolpusher
    Driller
    Roughnecks
    Roustabouts
    Company man
    Mud engineer
    Derrickhand
    Geologist
    Well services crew will be on board for well work. The crew will normally comprise:
    Well services supervisor
    Wireline or coiled tubing operators
    Pump operator
    [edit] Drawbacks
    [edit] Risks
    The nature of their operation — extraction of volatile substances sometimes under extreme pressure in a hostile environment — means risk, accidents, and tragedies occasionally occur. In July 1988, 167 people died when Occidental Petroleum’s Piper Alpha offshore production platform, on the Piper field in the UK sector of the North Sea, exploded after a gas leak. The resulting investigation conducted by Lord Cullen, and was called the ‘Cullen Report’, was highly critical of a number of areas, including, but not limited to, management within the company, the design of the structure, and the Permit to Work System. The report was commissioned in 1988, and was delivered November 1990.[4] The accident greatly accelerated the practice of providing living accommodations on separate platforms, away from those used for extraction.

    However, this was in itself a hazardous environment. In March 1980, the ‘flotel’ (floating hotel) platform Alexander Kjelland capsized in a storm in the North Sea with the loss of 123 lives.[5]

    In 2001, the Petrobras 36 Oil Platform exploded and killed 11 people in Brazil. The platform sank five days after the explosions.

    Given the number of grievances and conspiracy theories that involve the oil business, and the importance of gas/oil platforms to the economy, platforms in the United States are believed to be potential terrorist targets. Agencies and military units responsible for maritime counterterrorism in the US (Coast Guard, Navy SEALs, Marine Recon) often train for platform raids.

    [edit] Ecological effects

    NOAA map of the 3,858 oil and gas platforms extant in the Gulf of Mexico in 2006In British waters, the cost of removing all platform rig structures entirely was estimated in 1995 at £1.5 billion, and the cost of removing all structures including pipelines—called a "clean sea" approach—at £3 billion.[citation needed]

    Further effects are the leaching of heavy metals that accumulate in buoyancy tanks into water; and risks associated with their disposal. There has been concern[who?] expressed at the practice of partially demolishing offshore rigs to the point that ships can traverse across their site; there have been instances[who?] of fishery vessels snagging nets on the remaining structures. Proposals for the disposal at sea of the Brent Spar, a 449 ft (137 m) tall storage buoy (another true function of that which is termed an oil rig), was for a time in 1996 an environmental cause célèbre in the UK after Greenpeace occupied the floating structure. The event led to a reconsideration of disposal policy in the UK and Europe.[citation needed]

    In the United States, Marine Biologist Milton Love has proposed that oil platforms off the California coast be retained as artificial reefs, instead of being dismantled (at great cost), because he has found them to be havens for many of the species of fish which are otherwise declining in the region, in the course of 11 years of research.[6] Love is funded mainly by government agencies, but also in small part by the California Artificial Reef Enhancement Program. NOAA has said it is considering this course of action, but wants money to study the effects of the rigs in detail. Divers have been used to assess the fish populations surrounding the platforms.[7] In the Gulf of Mexico, more than 200 platforms have been similarly converted.[citation needed]

    [edit] Deepest oil platforms
    Data is published regularly [3] for offshore platforms.

    The world’s deepest oil platform is the floating Independence Hub which is a semisubmersible platform in the Gulf of Mexico in a water depth of 2,414 meters (8,000 ft).

    For non-floating structures (Compliant Towers / Fixed platforms) the largest water depths are:

    Petronius Platform, Water depth 531 meters (1,742 ft)
    Baldpate Platform, Water depth 502 meters (1,647 ft)
    Bullwinkle Platform, Water depth 413 meters (1,355 ft)
    Pompano Platform, Water depth 393 meters (1,289 ft)
    Benguela-Belize Lobito-Tomboco Platform, Water depth 390 meters (1,280 ft)
    Tombua Landana Platform, Water depth 366 meters (1,201 ft)
    Harmony Platform, Water depth 366 meters (1,201 ft)
    Troll A Platform, Water depth 303 meters (994 ft)
    Gulfaks C Platform, Water depth 217 meters (712 ft)

    While I believe in capping offshore wells, I do not support the GREEN MOVEMENT or the carbon footprint groups.

    The volcano that erupted in Iceland was a natural disaster that proved than no movement or group of any kind can make our climate more pleasant.

    Paying for clean air through diverse and multiple methods for taxation is, in my opinion, a joke, thus I consider myself an environmentalist without an agenda for control or organized management where money changes hands to erase carbon footprints.

  8. roberthuffstutter says:

    Janet Napolitano recently referred to the Gulf as the Ocean. Perhaps a geography 101 course should become a prerequisite for all CABINET APPOINTMENTS?

  9. roberthuffstutter says:

    HOW IS THE U.S. GOING TO KEEP OTHER NATIONS FROM DRILLING OFFSHORE IN THE GULF?

    At one time, there was the Monroe Doctrine, but that has been discarded, or so it seems.

  10. roberthuffstutter says:

    I have changed my mind about ceasing all drilling. What we need is drilling in waters that are more shallow, thus eliminating this deep water repair dilemma and complexity.

    The officials in the area of the spill are not eager to shut down drilling because of the potential that thousands of jobs would be lost and cause even more problems.

  11. roberthuffstutter says:

    THE OIL SPILL COULD HAVE BEEN SOLVED ON DAY 2……..IF WE HAD ASKED FOR HELP FROM NATIONS WHO HAD HIGH-TECH IN UNDERWATER OPERATIONS……….FOR EXAMPLE, CHINA, who built the THREE GORGE DAM….could have solved this problem. I know this for a fact.

  12. roberthuffstutter says:

    COMPARISON OF GULF SPILL TO 9/11…only proves that PRESIDENT OBAMA seems desperate to make his agenda come true.

    Only those without common sense will see the two as anywhere near similar. The two have NO ASSOCIATION whatsoever.

    Where does this logic come from?

    That is a good question, another reason to go to the polls in November 2010 and 2012 and VOTE THE ADMINISTRATION OUT OF OFFICE UNLESS…you want America to go the route of SOCIALIST EUROPEAN COUNTRIES THAT ARE BROKE and in very sad shape.

    Is this what we want on AMERICAN STREETS?

  13. roberthuffstutter says:

    We are worried about the JONES ACT, but oblivious to the MONROE DOCTRINE and let foreign nations drill in the GULF?
