The OPB System is a high reliability, standalone, normally unmanned Production system that comprises:
An unmanned buoy (for Communication, Control, Power, De-gassing, Water Treatment and Emergency Venting.)
A heated subsea storage tank (for separation of oil and water)
A tanker offload system.
The low Capex and low Opex OPB System is designed to operate independently from existing Operator infrastructure and it can be redeployed several times throughout its twentyfive-year operating life.
The OPB System is designed to connect to new or existing subsea infrastructure to enable Operators to access oil reserves they previously considered uneconomic. It provides a cost effective Production solution for stranded reserves, Early Production Systems and late life Field Extension.
