Peart said that Shell has learned much from early reliability challenges in their subsea systems. This standardization of the hardware means Shell and FMC can optimize every stage of construction from building to testing to installation. Shell and FMC worked together to design a standard system that meets all of the functionality requirements of the bulk of Shell's deepwater portfolio. Reviewing deepwater prospects in the future, the company set out to distill what it had learned into a suite of systems. The chief concerns are high pressures of 10,000-15,000 psi, cold flow temperatures due to long offsets, high flow rates, resource availability, and the frequency with which intervention is necessary. Peart said there are a handful of basic concerns a standardized deepwater subsea system should address. Doug Peart, manager of subsea projects for Shell, said Shell has learned a lot about deepwater subsea systems over the years. To this end, Shell and FMC are working on a program of standardization that could use the same basic components to construct a variety of subsea systems. Shell and FMC focused their attention on the fixed costs of the subsea hardware. The remaining 45% covers drilling and completion costs. Shell quoted statistics that show 34% of the cost of a subsea well can be attributed to the fabrication and installation of the flowlines, while an additional 21% is spent on the subsea hardware. Shell, which has a number of record assets in deepwater and more than its share of subsea developments, would like to see the fixed costs of a deepwater subsea development come down so that the technology could be applied to a broader range of fields. While no deepwater subsea system can be called "routine", that is exactly how Shell and its alliance partner FMC would some day like to view such projects. Peak production rates are expected to reach 35,000 b/d and 65 MMcf/d by later this year. The subsea system will consist of three subsea satellite wells clustered around a four-well subsea manifold. Macaroni is located in 3,700 ft water depth, in Garden Banks Block 602, about 235 miles southeast of Houston. Shell recently rolled out its latest subsea development, Macaroni, which will tie back 12 miles to the Auger TLP. Cut the heat and add in pasta shells.Part of the Shell standardized deepwater subsea system is the standardized tubing head, shown here being installed on Macaroni. Stir until thickened into a sauce (this may take a bit). Bring to a slight boil while mixing constantly. In a large saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. Additionally, I use unsweetened cashew milk in this recipe, because it cuts down on the amount of dairy (and tastes very similar to regular milk).Ĥ cups Milk (I prefer unsweetened cashew milk)Ģ cups shredded Sharp White Cheddar CheeseĬook pasta shells in boiling water for the length of time it says on the box (it was 13 mins for mine). I also LOVE incorporating white cheddar into my macaroni and cheese. Shells are my favorite type of noodle to use for this. Anytime it’s rainy or I have a down day, macaroni and cheese brings me comfort. Macaroni is my absolute fav comfort food.
