side the pile, and then suction pumps remove the soil from the
pile. The company says its Magna subsea inspection system is
a versatile screening inspection tool that assesses the mechanical integrity of assets at a high rate without disrupting production. The remotely operated vehicle-deployable system inspects
360 degrees around the pipe, and provides real-time data of the
wall condition with a single deployment.

Multiphase Compressor
Developed in cooperation with Statoil and Shell, OneSubsea
says its multiphase compressor enables compression of the unprocessed well stream without any need for preprocessing. It is
capable of handling high liquid contents without mechanical issues, with gas volume fractions typically in the range of 95 to 100
percent. The contra-rotating multiphase compressor is based on
subsea booster pump designs, and can be installed using light intervention vessels. The main drivers in developing the technology were increasing recovery rates and cost effectively increasing tieback distances of subsea gas fields. According to OneSubsea, a Cameron and Schlumberger company, the first commercial
system was delivered to the Statoil-operated Gullfaks Field in the
North Sea in March, with commissioning planned later this year.
SBM Offshore's ARCA is a new chain connector design for attaching mooring lines to floating units. Placing the chain articulation
in the mooring line allows them to be recovered for inspection and
maintenance. ARCA also allows diverless connection and disconnection, and significant cost reductions for turret mooring systems.
Schlumberger is being presented with Spotlight awards for two
technologies: GeoSphere and Quanta Geo. It says the GeoSphere
reservoir mapping-while-drilling service reveals subsurface-bedding and fluid-contact details more than 100 feet from the well-

bore. This reservoir-scale view provides an unprecedented
depth of investigation to allow operators to optimize landing, maximize reservoir exposure, and refine field development plans using deep-directional measurements enabled by real-time interpretation solutions.
The Quanta Geo photorealistic reservoir geology service provides
highly detailed, core-like microresistivity images that visually represent formation geology in oil-based muds, Schlumberger continues. It says the images enable confident visual identification of facies and determination of directional trends to reduce uncertainty,
making better field development plans and quantifying project economics.
Tracerco says its Discovery system is engineered to externally inspect coated lines for flow assurance and pipeline integrity
issues without removing any coatings. The subsea pipeline inspection system provides flow assurance and integrity data without interrupting production; identifies hydrate, wax, asphaltene or scale
deposition; and provides scanning results in real time.
The Versacutter from Versabar Inc. represents a new way of
cutting through offshore platform piles and well conductors at depths
up to 20 feet below the mud line. The company says it delivers a
reciprocating cutting wire below the mud line by water jetting, with
the wire continuously cutting through piles and conductors.
Subsea Water-Cut Meter
Weatherford also has two technologies receiving Spotlight
awards. The first, the Red Eye subsea water-cut meter, uses nearinfrared absorption to detect water onset and measure water cuts
and water-to-hydrate inhibitor-ratios, the company reports. The
meter can operate in full three-phase flow streams at any gas-volume fraction, and is not affected by changes in salinity, elimi-
