Genesis has extensive expertise in the development of gathering systems, having delivered designs for some of the most ambitious and impactful projects worldwide. Our close collaboration with our clients allows us to provide alternative, unique solutions.
In the development of a gathering system, Genesis considers a total system design approach, from reservoir to host facility.
We have the expertise to engineer all the building blocks of a gathering system, including:
Field layout planning and routing, including operational philosophies incorporating commercially optimised development through staged or deferred capital expenditure, and enabling facilities for future tie-ins;
Flow assurance and process control necessary to ensure optimised pipeline sizing and operability, especially where flow balancing is critical to ensure flexibility
Geotechnical studies
Materials selection and engineering
Corrosion assessments including risk-based corrosion management and Cathodic Protection design
Pipeline and riser design
Global in-place analysis (rigid riser, pipeline, flexible and umbilical)
Subsea control system engineering
Subsea and topsides metering
Hot tapping and pigging studies
Subsea structure and spool design
Installation feasibility assessment.
Where applicable, enabling expertise in the areas highlighted above, are considered to unlock development potential.
Our experience in gathering systems covers brownfield and greenfield developments in both well-established and emerging markets worldwide.
