Successful design and operation of a multiphase production system, particularly for one that is long distance and/or in deep water, must consider the entire system, from the reservoir to (or beyond) export from the production facility. To assure that the entire system can be designed, built, and operated successfully and economically, system designers must consider and/or control reservoir characteristics and production profiles, produced fluids properties and behavior, the design of major system components, operating strategies, and other system variables. Economic penalties for “getting it wrong” can be severe.

To “get it right”, INTEC endeavors to execute its engineering services with appropriate attention to inter-disciplinary system aspects that affect our work and that our work affects.  INTEC’s Systems Engineering Department (SE) strives to provide focus on - and to develop expertise in - Systems Engineering work areas and to help assure that issues that underlie the work of all project groups are appropriately considered and applied on all INTEC projects.
