Cold Oil is Slow Oil
2017
Overview
Companies are using new internal coating for pipelines; a Finnish company built Polaris, the most powerful icebreaker for the country featuring environmentally friendly dual-fuel engines; and in a race to complete a bridge in a mere two years over a North Slope channel, ConocoPhillips Alaska used new procedures that extended the work season, trimmed man-hours, and helped protect the environment. The project includes a six-mile gravel road, four bridges, thirty-two miles of pipeline, and communications and electrical infrastructure connecting CD5 to the main Alpine facilities, in addition to the onsite facilities and drill site. The timeline was tight-a mere two years-to complete the project. Because the building season is so short on the North Slope-roughly ninety days from about February to April 30-they were actually looking at two, three-month periods over that two-year span. Heat pumps, new processes and devices, internal pipe coating, and data analysis are just a few measures Alyeska is taking to resolve the slow-flow problem.
