Investigation into factors affecting the timing and capacity of offshore oil production projects

This thesis investigates the effect of different design capacities on the economic return of a number or hypothetical offshore oilfields. In particular, it investigates the optimum design capacity of both a main field and a satellite field being produced over the main field platform. The optimum tim...

Description
Summary:	This thesis investigates the effect of different design capacities on the economic return of a number or hypothetical offshore oilfields. In particular, it investigates the optimum design capacity of both a main field and a satellite field being produced over the main field platform. The optimum timing of first oil from the satellite field is also investigated.
