DEVELOPMENT OF A TWO-PHASE OIL PUMPING SYSTEM FOR EVACUATING SUBSEA PRODUCTION WITHOUT PROCESSING OVER A LONG DISTANCE: POSEIDON PROJECT

The aim of the Poseidon Project developed jointly by IFP, Statoil and Total CFP since 1984 is to develop subsea two-phase production systems required for pipelining petroleum effluents. This paper describes; i) the structure of the two-phase production system, ii) the results and performances of IFP two-phase pumps; and iii) the general specifications for industrial two-phase pumping system with capacities of 25,000 and 40,000 bbl/day.
