Pazflor Subsea Separation, Ten Years After

Abstract

On Saturday the 3rd of September 2011, at 22h30 Luanda time, the first Pazflor gas/liquid Subsea Separation Unit (SSU) is put into operation, and one hybrid pump starts in production. Few weeks later, all three SSU are fully operational. In 2021, all three SSU will celebrate 10 years of successful operation. The paper relates 10 years of operational feedback of the Pazflor Subsea Separation Units with a special focus on the pumping system.
