Zakum Development Company (ZADCO) is ramping up production at its oil field offshoreof Abu Dhabi, opting to use a network of artificial islands instead of a traditional steel rig. Rarely used in the oil and gas industry, artificial islands provide an interesting new option, but what works best for which operators and in what conditions?</div>

Breaking traditional conventions of offshore oil and gas production, Zakum Development Company (ZADCO), in 2009, decided it would construct a collection of artificial islands amid the Arabian Sea to increase production at its Upper Zackum field offshore Abu Dhabi.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
ZADCO, working on behalf of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company and in conjunction with Exxon Mobil, abandoned its original plan for 25 Wellhead Platform Towers at the field, together with hundreds of kilometres of new flow lines, and opted for the artificial islands strategy instead.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The company wants to increase field production from 550,000 to 750,000 barrels of oil per day by 2015. It hopes to sustain this for 25 years.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Though not an entirely new concept to the industry - they have been used off the cost of California and using ice in Alaska - artificial islands constructed for drilling purposes remain extremely rare and have never been executed on this projected scale before.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Switching strategies is a bold move, but what benefits can ZADCO hope to reap from using man made island structures instead of conventional steel rigs?</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Construction costs</h2>
<div class="rightpullquote" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #e96d21; float: right; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 5px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; width: 200px;">
"Artificial islands constructed for drilling purposes remain extremely rare and have never been executed on this projected scale."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Constructing artificial islands depends on a number of factors, but most notably, location. The Arabian Sea is already famed for a number of artificial islands, such as Dubai's famous Palm Island and The World islands, proving the sea has good geology for building artificial islands.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
To build islands sand must be pumped from the bottom of the seabed, a process known as dredging. It is then used in constructing the base of the islands.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
For Upper Zakum the seabed off Abu Dhabi provides a "unique" situation, whereby building islands is cost effective, says Frank G. Adams, president of Interface Consulting, an offshore engineering consultancy firm.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"The richness of the sea bottoms for establishing islands is particularly unique, and it just so happens the technology to develop islands in that area is fairly robust," he adds.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"It's a unique concept for Abu Dhabi."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
With localised expertise - the dredging contract for Upper Zakum went to Abu Dhabi's national dredging company, National Marine Dredging Company - and materials, islands are a most cost-effective alternative to steel rigs that have to be imported and constructed with outside expertise.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Islands may also make operational costs cheaper, suggests Jean-Paul Boyer from Pentair, commenting on an online discussion, he says: "Running an installation on 'firm land' is less costly than running an offshore array of several platforms."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Sigbjørn Sangesland, a professor at the Department of Petroleum Engineering and Applied Geophysics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, cautions, however, that islands may only be beneficial for large reservoirs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"I would assume if you have a small reservoir it may be more economic to put another platform on the location," he says.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Deep vs shallow water depths</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Water depth is another key issue when considering artificial islands as opposed to steel rigs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
The Upper Zakum field area is in shallow water with a depth ranging from six to 13 metres, ideal for ease and reasonable cost of construction.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"To build an artificial island In deep water will require a lot of material. I would assume in deep water it would be very expensive and impractical," says Sangesland.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
This is a feeling echoed by Adams, who says artificial islands for oil and gas production wouldn't work in deep water, and this is why they are used less frequently than steel rigs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"You would have to have too much soil. In deep water the use of different types of steel platforms and concrete platforms is more appropriate," he says.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Drilling capability - maximising the reservoir</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
A key reason ZADCO has opted for artificial islands is to "improve long term reservoir recovery," according the company, and to extend its drilling reach from 10,000 to 30,000 - 35,000 feet using Exxon Mobil's extended-reach drilling (ERD) technology, as well as Maximum Reservoir Contact (MRC) technology.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Drilling from artificial islands offers many advantages for this, as well as some technical challenges.</div>
<div class="leftpullquote" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #e96d21; float: left; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; width: 200px;">
"There are so many positives that whatever drawbacks there are to the technical sides, those can be easily dealt with."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Adams says that with a cluster of steel structures you are limited to the amount of wells you can have, whereas with a land base you are able to create a lot more wells - "as many as 200 wells" - which would never be possible with steel rig structures.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
ZADCO say: "Many of the wells on the islands will be complex and expensive wells, but their contribution will be much higher than historic Upper Zakum wells. This will improve production performance, optimise the well count and minimise capital investments".</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Technically, Sangesland agrees, he says drilling from an island looks like "a good alternative".</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"If you have a reservoir to be produced it will be beneficial to produce the reservoir at a high angle or horizontally, because then you will increase the drainage. That is an advantage," he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
He likens what ZADCO is doing to what is being done at Wytch farm in Devon, UK, where extended reach drilling is used to drill offshore from the land. It has one of the longest producing wells, which has a horizontal displacement distance of 10,728m and a total length of 1,278m.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Drilling from land suits this type of drilling strategy in particular, but Sangesland warns that, whether from a rig or an island, this type of drilling is "time consuming and there are always problems."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Adams adds: "I understand they have some problems in the drilling process managing the loads on the drill stems because the islands are a fairly good distance from where the reservoirs are, and as they are going deep in the reservoir in a multiple manner, there are some concerns about mechanical loads on the drill stem."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
But he adds: "There are so many positives that whatever drawbacks there are to the technical sides, those can be easily dealt with."</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Environment and safety advantages</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"From an environmental stand point the impact is less," Adams categorically states.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
He says this is because building artificial islands involves using natural elements, like sand, and not forcing huge steel structures into the seabed, which have to bear the weight of drilling equipment and other facilities.</div>
<div class="rightpullquote" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #e96d21; float: right; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.5em; margin: 0px 0px 5px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline; width: 200px;">
"Building artificial islands involves using natural elements, like sand, and not forcing huge steel structures into the seabed."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Consultancy engineers, Ramboll, which carried out an assessment of the environmental impact of the artificial islands, concluded that construction of the islands would not affect the environment and the existing structures significantly.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
One hazard they did identify was some pipelines in the vicinity of the islands were found to require additional stabilisation in terms of concrete mattresses.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, another environmental and cost bonus of artificial islands is they do not need to be deconstructed. They can be left to erode naturally or turned into something that supports local wildlife.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
But the key positive of producing from an artificial island is space. Platforms can only be so big, whereas on an island's facilities can be spread further out, creating a reduced fire risk.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"From a safety standpoint it's far superior to steel structures," says Adams.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"If something happens at the facility the people have to get off the steel structures, but on an island there are areas they can go to without having to risk life and limb."</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
It is also much easier to get into boats to escape a raging fire from a land base structure as opposed to a steel rig, where workers tend to rely on helicopters limited in space to evacuate them from the rig.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.2em; margin: 0px 0px 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
An interesting, but limited future</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Artificial islands, which have been constructed in abundance around the Persian Gulf for land and leisure reasons, make an attractive option when considering a strategy for offshore drilling for a number of reasons - including space, environmental impacts, safety, cost and number of well heads.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
However, these advantages are limited by a number of factors - such as water depth, sand quality and reservoir size - which have, and will no doubt continue to, limit their future use.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Adams believes it's unlikely this strategy will take off on the same scale as Upper Zakum in other parts of the world.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
"There are certain areas in the world where there is shallow water production but you may not be able to dredge the soils to create islands," he says.</div>
