API TR 17TR13

Description

This document was generated based on information previously published in an informative annex included in API 17A. Subsea production systems can range in complexity from a single satellite well with a flowline linked to a fixed platform, to several wells on a template producing and transferring via subsea processing facilities to a fixed or floating facility, or directly to an onshore installation. The objectives of this document are ? to describe typical examples of the various subsystems and components that can be combined, in a variety of ways, to form complete subsea production systems, ? to describe the interfaces with typical downhole and topsides equipment that are relevant to subsea production systems, ? to provide some basic design guidance on various aspects of subsea production systems.
