Arpel and SLB: Process Safety Implementation for an Early Production Facility

Arpel and SLB: Process Safety Implementation for an Early Production Facility

At the beginning of November, Arpel's Environment, Health and Safety Committee held a webinar on “Process Safety Implementation for an Early Production Facility (EPF) – Upstream”, which was exclusive for members and was led by SLB.

The presentation was made by Leonel Romero, Operations Integrity SESS Champion, SLB Digital & Integration for Ecuador, Colombia and Peru.

During field development activities, there is always uncertainty in identifying the surface production potential of the wells drilled in the reservoir. To minimize risks, temporary equipment is initially used to define key production fluid parameters before investing in permanent facilities, which are expected to have a long useful life.

Moreover, strict compliance with all national and international regulations determines the level of acceptability that companies have in their process safety matrix, as well as the thorough evaluation of primary and residual risks when implementing preventive and mitigation measures in the facilities to be installed.

This webinar showed the upstream experience in implementing Process Safety for Early Production Facilities (EPF) in the development of an oil field in Latin America.
