Decommissioning Topics
Chess Subsea Decommissioning Research Topics
As the hub of deepwater research in west Africa, Chess Subsea Engineering research is centered in five major research areas namely Subsea Production Systems & Top sides, Marine Engineering, Offshore Engineering, Oil and Gas Resource 
Development & Decommissioning.
Our Decommissioning Engineering research topic includes
- – Field Restoration (Well Abandonment & Decommissioning)
Advanced Subsea Production System (SPS) Professional Courses
Subsea production system is associated with the overall process and all the equipment involved in drilling, field development, and field operation.
Component of Subsea production system includes:
- Subsea Well Drilling Systems
- Wellhead system(s) with associated casing strings
- Subsea Christmas trees (XT) for production or injection purposes
- Subsea Umbilical Risers and Flowlines (SURF)
- Manifolds, Jumpers, Spools, Pipelines and Foundations
- Subsea Control Systems (SCS)
- Subsea Processing Systems – Boosting, Compressors, Separation & Power
The downloadable PDF below; shows relationship between subsea production systems (SPS) – Field Architecture
