TY - SER AU - McWilliams,Robert TI - Enhanced capability for single well step-outs and tiebacks: Subsea connection advances facilitate diverless shallow-water tieback PY - 2020/// CY - PB - N2 - Novel use of diverless connections in construction of a shallow subsea tieback offshore Malaysia cut costs by approximately 20% while improving safety and reducing the project’s carbon footprint. A key project component was a Stinger Deployed Diverless Connector (SDDC) developed in a partnership between AFGlobal and pipeline contractor Cortez Subsea. Deployed as part of Vestigo Petroleum’s Tembikai Non-Associated Gas (TNAG) field development program, the project integrated new and proven technology to connect the pipeline to two flexible risers and to connect pipeline sections without the need for divers and welding. AFGlobal and Cortez Subsea developed the SDDC system to connect the pipeline to the host facility UR - https://epplus.hartenergy.com/issue/october-2020/enhanced-capability-for-single-well-step-outs-and-tiebacks/ ER -
