NAVIGATION AND SURVEY TECHNIQUES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF NORTH SEA SATELLITE HYDROCARBON FIELDS

The North Sea is at the leading edge of offshore hydrocarbon technology due to its hostile environment and deep water. This paper gives an overview of the role of the offshore surveyor in the North Sea by discussing the survey aspects, tools and techniques used in the development of a contemporary oil/gas field. Particular attention is paid to some of the more unusual techniques being developed today.
