Gas SIMOPS is a concurrent execution of two or more activities at same time, i.e., Drilling Operation, Oil Production & Gas Injection on an offshore wellhead tower thereby ensuring uninterrupted oil production and continuous reservoir pressure management from gas injection. The alternative to gas injection in this scenario was gas flaring, which has major environmental and financial impact. Considering continuous presence of personnel on drilling rig working over wellhead tower with high pressure gas injection; extensive Risk Analysis were conducted, and additional control/Mitigation measures were implemented. This initiative also contributed to the zero Gas flaring vision of the company by achieving a huge quantity of CO2 emission reduction. This successful Gas SIMOPS model is already being extended to other fields. To achieve this objective and keeping with 100% HSE, an in-house multi-disciplinary team collaborated and successfully executed Gas SIMOPS for the first time in UAE Offshore. Execution of Gas SIMOPS has brought major economic benefits to the company with additional Gas savings incurred.
