Bluewater and the Sable FieldDevelopment
Before installation at the Sable field,
the vessel’s production and processing
facilities had to be modified to fit the
requirements of the field. Design
capacities were upgraded to handle
the specific field processing require-
ments, 85 MMscfd gas re-injection,
and 45,000 bwpd water injection.
The Glas Dowr is the fifth Bluewater
designed, built, owned and operated
FPSO and commenced operation in
August 1997 at the Durward &
Dauntless Fields for Amerada Hess.
However, the Durward & Dauntless
fields did not perform as expected and
the Glas Dowr was demobilised from
its North Sea location in 1999.
The availability of the Glas Dowr was
a key factor in attaining oil from the
Sable Field on a fast track schedule
using a well-proven production
approach. In preparation for produc-
tion, Bluewater was able to immedi-
ately begin the following phased
development plan designed to initiate
production from the Sable field:
Phase 1 Supply &ConversionThe Glas Dowr was initially dry-
docked in Rotterdam for modifica-
tions to the hull and installation of a
thruster. After modifications were suc-
cessfully completed, the Glas Dowr
was towed to Cape Town for further
upgrades.
The topsides were then upgraded with
increased gas injection capacity,
additional power generation and oil
processing equipment. Installation of
the new equipment was completed in
Cape Town.
Phase 2 InstallationSubsea infrastructure was supplied,
installed and prepared for production.
Installation and hook-up of the Glas
Dowr was then carried out prior to
final commissioning and testing of all
the facilities needed to begin produc-
tion operations.
Phase 3 OperationsBluewater now maintains full respon-
sibility for the safe and efficient oper-
ation of all FPSO and shuttle tanker
equipment for the duration of the
Sable Field contract.

Bluewater was awarded a contract to provide and operatethe floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, Glas Dowr, along with shuttle tanker and subseaequipment for the Sable field. The initial term of the leaseand operating contract is ten years with a minimum term of three years.
The Sable Field Development
Location and reservesThe Sable development lies in the
Bredasdorp Basin in Block 9, off the
coast of South Africa. It consists of two
reservoirs: the E-BD oil reservoir and
the E-CE oil and gas reservoir. The E-
The Sable oil field is located 150 kilometres southwest of Mossel Bay, off the Western Capeof South Africa, and commenced production in August 2003. PetroSA, the South Africanstate-owned exploration and production company is Field Operator with a 60% workinginterest. Pioneer Natural Resources holds the remaining 40% interest. Lying in approximate-ly 100 m of water, the development is estimated to have recoverable reserves in the regionof 20 million to 25 million barrels of oil, producing initially at a peak rate of 30,000 to40,000 barrels of oil per day. Sable has been developed with six subsea wells tied back tothe Bluewater-owned and operated floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) ves-sel, Glas Dowr. Oil will be taken onshore by a shuttle tanker.
BD oil field was discovered in 1990,
followed by the E-CE oil and gas field
in 1991. The E-BD field partially over-
lies E-CE, and the extent of the two
reservoirs measures approximately
10 x 2 km.
With recoverable reserves estimated at
between 20 million and 25 million
barrels, the field is expected to have
an economic life of three to five
years. Oil production commenced in
August 2003. During the production

life, an estimated 120 Bcf (billion
cubic feet) of gas is expected to
remain in the E-CE gas cap. This will
be available for export to PetroSA’s
gas-to-liquids plant in Mossel Bay.
The Sable partnershipIn June 2001, the South African, state-
owned exploration and production
company, PetroSA (Petroleum Oil &
Gas Corporation of South Africa (Pty.)
Ltd) was given approval to develop
the offshore Sable oil field. PetroSA is
the Operator of the Sable field with a
60% working interest. PetroSA’s field
partner, Pioneer Natural Resources
(a Dallas-based company), holds the
remaining 40% interest.
In addition to development activities,
Pioneer is also appraising possible
prospects near the Sable field over
Blocks 7 and 9, and is evaluating its
Block 14A/M gas discoveries.
Field developmentSable has been developed with four
production wells, a water injection
well and a gas injection well. PetroSA
awarded a turnkey contract to
Bluewater (U.K.) Ltd. in June 2001 for
the engineering, procurement, instal-
lation and subsequent operation of
the field’s entire facilities, with the
exception of the six development
wells. This contract was awarded as a
result of an extensive development
appraisal, conceptual engineering
and tendering phase that lasted
approximately two years.
Bluewater, in turn, subcontracted the
complete subsea facilities and off-
shore installation scope of work to
Technip France in August 2001. The
contract called for Technip France to
design, supply and install the subsea
facilities at Sable, including all pro-
duction risers and umbilicals, in-field
flowlines and associated equipment.
Pride Foramer, using the drilling rigs
Omega and Pride Southern Seas dur-
ing the period from November 2001
through December 2002, drilled the
six development wells under PetroSA’s
supervision.
Engineering and hardware manufac-
ture were carried out at a variety of
locations worldwide - though pre-
dominantly in Europe - between June
2001 and September 2002.
InstallationIn addition to designing and supply-
ing the flowlines, umbilicals and ris-
ers, Technip France was responsible
for all related offshore installation
activities. This included the tow of
Glas Dowr (first from the UK via dry
docking in Rotterdam to Cape Town,
and then to the Sable field), installa-
tion of moorings, and installation,
hookup and testing of flowlines,
umbilicals and risers to the Xmas trees
and FPSO.
Installation work in the field was per-
formed in two phases. The first phase
took place between October and
December 2002, using the CSO
Constructor and CSO Deep Pioneer.
The second phase took place in April,
May and June 2003, using the CSO
Venturer and four tugs for positioning
the Glas Dowr.
OperationBluewater will operate the field facili-
ties from its operational base in Cape
Town. PetroSA will provide logistics
for this phase, most notably supply
vessels and helicopters, from its exist-
ing supply base at Mossel Bay.
Operation of the field will be strictly
in accordance with the Environmental
Management Plan agreed with the
South African authorities. Health and
safety matters will be conducted fol-
lowing PetroSA and Bluewater’s strin-
gent safety management systems,
both of which meet the applicable,
recognised South African and
International safety standards.
The Sable oil field will be exploited using the Bluewater-owned-and-operated turret-moored floating production,storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, Glas Dowr.In addition to full oil, gas and water processing facilities,the FPSO has 657,000 barrels of oil storage. Gas producedas a result of the oil production will be re-injected into theE-CE reservoir to maintain pressure, and to enhance oilrecovery, thereby minimising any gas flaring associated withthe development.
As well as having designed and built
the Glas Dowr, Bluewater also owns
and operates the FPSO. It began its
first operations in August 1997 on the
Durward & Dauntless fields in
the North Sea, but was demobilised
in 1999.
Before deployment on the Sable field,
the Glas Dowr’s production and pro-
cessing facilities had to be significant-
ly upgraded from their previous
assignment to meet Sable’s produc-
tion, injection, storage and offloading
requirements.
The vessel was initially drydocked in
Rotterdam for hull modifications and
installation of a thruster, and was then
towed to Cape Town for topside
upgrading.
FPSO operationIn June 2001, Bluewater was awarded
the contract to provide and operate
production facilities for the Sable field.
This involves supplying and operating
the FPSO vessel, Glas Dowr, along
with the shuttle tanker and subsea
equipment. The initial term of the lease
and operating contract is 10 years,
with a minimum term of three years.
Upgrading the GlasDowrBluewater awarded the contract for the
upgrade work on the Glas Dowr to SA
Five Engineering, a company that
began operations in South Africa in
1991. The Glas Dowr was first moved
from its UK location, arriving via
Rotterdam in Cape Town harbour at
the end of June 2002. The upgrade was
carried out at SA Five Engineering’s
facilities, located at A-Berth in Cape
Town harbour, where more than
50,000 m2 of lay-down area, fabrica-
tion shops, storage sheds and offices
are available. Various structures for the
Glas Dowr were also prefabricated at
SA Five’s workshop facilities.
Upgrade work involved the
fabrication design, bulk procurement,
fabrication, installation, testing and
6 Sable Field Sable Field 7
commissioning of a gas compression
module, (low, medium and high-pres-
sure), process separation module, gas
turbine generator, water cooling system,
flare structure and stabiliser platform,
including erection and alignment of the
stabiliser vessel. Various other modifica-
tions to existing topside facilities on the
FPSO were also performed. Design
capacities were upgraded to handle the
Sable requirements of 40,000-bopd pro-
cessing, 85-MMscfd re-injection, and
45,000-bwpd injection.
SA Five was responsible for the
fabrication engineering, draughting,
procurement, fabrication, erection, full
painting system (including insulation),
bolt tensioning, chemical cleaning and
pre-commissioning of pipework
(including nitrogen-helium leak testing
and hydro testing). The range of
pipework was from 1-in. to 24-in.,
Schedule 10 to XXS, with a rating
range of 150 to 5,000 lb. The Electrical
and Instrumentation scope included
procurement and installation of
88,000 m of cabling, light fittings, tub-
ing, switches, control and junction
boxes. Also included were the installa-
tion of HV and LV switchboards and
control panels, and associated cable
tray and cable racks.
The vessel’s existing ventilation plant
was designed for North Sea utilisation
and not for tropical application.
Air Options, an SA Five-affiliated com-
pany, designed and engineered the
conversion of the USB and accomoda-
tion utilities services ventilation plant
into a full HVAC system. In these
HVAC plants, Air Options utilised the
air handling units that it designed and
Subsea Components
Flowlines, umbilicalsand risersTo produce the oil and gas reservoirs,
the Glas Dowr is linked to six subsea
wells by flexible flowlines and risers,
and hydraulic umbilicals for Xmas tree
control. The flowlines range in size
from 5.75-in. to 9-in. internal diameter,
while the umbilical outside diameters
fall in the range 135 mm to 235 mm.
The flexible flowlines and risers link-
ing the six wells to the FPSO’s turret
were manufactured in Le Trait, France.
The umbilicals, used to control the
subsea Xmas trees and to flow chemi-
cals and lift gas to the production
wells, were made in Newcastle,
England.
Completionprocurement andservicesBaker Oil Tools was awarded the com-
pletion procurement and services con-
tract for the Sable field project. The
primary objectives during completion
design were to ensure trouble-free
installation and reliable performance,
and so prevent any costly delays.
Following award of the contract, the
original proposals prepared by Baker’s
regional office in London were
finalised, with the support of Houston
headquarters and the close co-
operation of PetroSA’s completion and
drilling department in Cape Town.
Final designs were approved in
June 2001.
The Premier® Removable Packer
(designed for large-bore and high-vol-
ume production or injection wells)
was selected as the primary produc-
tion/injection packer. To complete the
system, gas lift mandrels have been
installed for artificial lift and gas kick-
off, while permanent gauges enable
real-time well monitoring at all times.
Standard and well-proven, non-elas-
tomeric T-Series™ Tubing Retrievable
Subsurface Safety Valves were used as
downhole safety devices. Due to the
different tubing sizes needed in the
various wells, different valve sizes
were installed. Conventional slick-
line-deployed blanking plugs and
check valves were used to perform the
necessary tubing pressure tests, and
activate hydraulically set production
packers.
It was originally assumed that an isola-
tion device was needed in the E-CE5 gas
injector well to isolate the bottom part
of the wellbore for startup, allowing
injection in the upper half of the well-
bore, only. It was envisaged that this iso-
lation device would later be opened
remotely, to enable injection across the
entire wellbore. Baker Oil Tools offered
a unique solution, based on an annulus-
pressure-operated HCM™ Hydraulic
Sliding Sleeve. However, the shales that
were expected to separate the two parts
of the wellbore were not encountered
during drilling, and the isolation device
was subsequently not installed.

While the vessel was in port,
Air Options was asked to overhaul and
check the performance and design of
the existing HVAC plant serving the
main accommodation section.

Subsea landing stringThe contract for the subsea landing
strings was awarded to the Expro
Group, whose monobore, subsea inter-
vention and completion landing string
(with integrated, surface hydraulic con-
trol system) has an excellent track
record for reliable and successful com-
pletion operations. Such reliability is
vital for a development such as Sable,
as the subsea landing string is the pri-
mary safety system for controlling well
pressure during completion and inter-
vention operations on horizontal sub-
sea trees.
The innovative, ball valve technology
used by Expro provides dual barrier
isolation, capable of cutting up to 2
3/8-in. heavy-wall coiled tubing while
still offering a gas-tight seal. Expro has
designed the subsea landing string to
include an integrated hydraulic circuit,
so that well pressure can be isolated,
and the subsea wellhead and comple-
tion equipment can also be controlled.
It also enables the landing string to be
disconnected in less than one minute,
if operational conditions require this.
The entire completion string was
managed by the integrated hydraulic
control systems, including the subsea
intervention tree, retainer valve, lubri-
cator valve, and surface flowhead.
Third-party hydraulic functions for the
tubing hanger running tool, and com-
pletion equipment below the tubing
hanger, were also controlled through
a single umbilical.
The modular landing string was
designed to API standards for subsur-
face safety systems. It enabled accu-
sea tree equipment was also sub-
jected to thorough site testing. In
addition, minor modifications
were performed at Mossel Bay to
the tooling package’s workover
controls. These alterations meant
that the tooling package could
then be used with the Sable subsea
tree, which had a slightly different
valve configuration.
An operations manager, responsi-
ble for onshore logistics and instal-
lation services, was appointed
before the equipment was
received. The operations manager
remained at Mossel Bay until all
the equipment had been success-
fully installed, and the installation
tooling was refurbished and pre-
pared for long-term storage.
A Service Contract was executed
through FMC Technologies’ South
African legal entity.

selected from pre-engineered solu-
tions. The subsea tree design chosen
was based upon a modular design
that had previously been installed off-
shore South Africa. The subsea tree
equipment was designed, manufac-
tured and tested in FMC Kongsberg
Subsea’s facility in Dunfermline,
Scotland. As there were sufficient in
house stocks, it was possible to begin
manufacture immediately after award
of the contract.
All the equipment supplied by FMC
Kongsberg Subsea was modelled
using a state-of-the-art, 3-dimensional
CAD system. This allowed full inter-
face verification prior to manufacture,
and helped to reduce the manufactur-
ing cycle time.
PetroSA-owned installation tooling
that had previously been supplied
by FMC Kongsberg Subsea under-
went refurbishment in PetroSA’s
operations base at Mossel Bay. As
it arrived in South Africa, the sub-
rate space-out configuration in accor-
dance with the Sable project’s specif-
ic configuration. The landing string
was also compatible with both
drilling vessels used during the
drilling and completion operations. To
ensure a successful conclusion to the
contract, Expro’s team of experienced
subsea engineers managed an exten-
sive integration and test programme.
Subsea treesIn June 2001, FMC Kongsberg Subsea,
a business unit of FMC Technologies
(FTI), was awarded the contract for six
subsea trees with integral over-
trawlable protection. The 5-inch hori-
zontal subsea trees (5,000 psi) were
installed in the one existing and five
new drill wells.
Because of the project’s fast-track
nature, the first subsea tree had to be
delivered to Mossel Bay before the
end of 2001. To ensure that this deliv-
ery date was met, equipment was
Well Drilling and Completion Operations
Drilling through the complex litholo-
gies associated with the offshore for-
mations in South Africa presents a
number of distinct challenges. When
planning drilling activities at Sable
field, PetroSA used detailed analyses
of drilling performance, mud logging
data and wireline data from offset
wells that had been previously con-
ducted for wells in the area to help
identify potential problems. This
enabled PetroSA to set objectives for
individual hole sections using the
highest penetration rates possible,
while maintaining borehole quality
and directional goals.
The thin nature of the oil layers in the
E-BD and E-CE reservoirs meant that
all wells were drilled with extensive
horizontal sections, with the excep-
tion of E-BD3. This was an existing
vertical well, and it was recompleted
as a production well for the develop-
ment.
Pride Foramer was the contractor for
drilling operations that took place in
the Sable field. Pride provided the
drilling rigs and services used to drill
five wells and to re-enter the sixth E-
BD3 well.
Pride International is one of the
world’s largest drillling contractors,
and its 328-rig fleet includes 12 semi-
submersibles that act as floating off-
shore drilling rigs. One of these, the
Pride South Seas rig, was used to drill
the E-CE4 well. A second rig, Omega,
drilled wells E-CE5, E-BD6, E-BD7
and E-BD8, and it re-entered well
E-BD3. Drilling took place at a water
depth of approximately 100 m
between November 2001 and
December 2002.
Active throughout the world at depths
up to 7,000 m or more, Pride’s fleet
also includes 250 land-based drilling
and workover rigs, 21 offshore plat-
form rigs, three barge rigs, 35 jack-
ups, five tender-assisted rigs, and two
ultra-deepwater drill ships.
