Modular MOPU™ uses novel approaches to integrate existing assets and technologies to modify mobile offshore drilling units (MODUs) or floating production units (FPUs) into oil & gas production facilities which are independent of oil & gas export pipelines or long subsea tiebacks.

Mobile Offshore Production Units (MOPU) converted from existing self-elevating unit (SEU) are often considered for shallow water production fields. They offer opportunities for fast-track development in comparison to new construction of fixed jackets and are typically able to be deployed on site without specialized offshore installation vessels.

Dec 1, 2024 · The MOPU classification includes all types of FPSO vessels, as well as spar and tension leg platforms, jack-ups, semi-submersible production units, and production barges. Defining FPSOs. A Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading vessel is a ship used to process and store oil and gas.

Expro's Mobile Offshore Production Units (MOPUs), Floating Production Storage and Offloading Units (FPSOs), barges and liftboats are all production platform options that should be considered when developing remote, deepwater or marginal fields where conventional production facilities or export pipelines may not be available or economical.

Modular MOPU provides industry-leading design and engineering solutions to help energy producers streamline and simplify offshore operations, and create value from problematic drilling projects.

Oil from a Mobile Production Offshore Unit (MOPU) is transferred by an export flexible flowline to a Floating Storage Offloading (FSO) Vessel which is spread moored close to the MOPU. FSO is modified to suit the field requirements and operated to …

Feb 8, 2024 · Deciding on the use of a MOPU, and the type deployed, should be made at the earliest stages of a project. Whether it’s choosing between a jacketed, monopile, or conductor supported platform (CSP), or exploring different MOPU types, our extensive engineering expertise and solutions are here to guide you towards the most economical and ...

For more and more applications, oil companies are considering the use of mobile offshore production units (MOPUs), especially jackups, instead of conventional platforms. A variety of economic considerations usually come into play in making such a decision.

The Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU) is a movable platform used in oil production. The design is most applicable to smaller offshore fields where production of Crude oil is c. 10,000-20,000 barrels per day.

Jul 18, 2019 · A Mobile Offshore Production Unit (MOPU) is a movable platform, or structure, that is used in offshore well production. Structures such as a jack-up drilling rig, semisubmersible drilling rig, or ship hulls, are often used for platforms.
