| Abstract: |
ADOC, Abu Dhabi Oil Co., Ltd. (Japan), marks another historical milestone with the commencement of oil production from a new oil field in November 2017. ADOC was established in 1968, and since then has been conducting stable operations through utilization of the best production technology that fully copes with the environment protection rules and regulations. The new oil field was granted as an additional oil field to its existing three oil fields when ADOC renewed its concession agreement in December 2012. Soon after the renewal of the concession, ADOC launched the new oil field development activities. The development plan of the field consisted of; 3D seismic acquisition, subsurface studies, drilling of appraisal wells and production wells, dredging of a channel and construction of the new artificial island and surface facilities. This paper will summarize the various challenges of field development in an environmentally sensitive area and the measures that were implemented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
