Abstract

Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading (FPSO) units, which are key assets in the development of deepwater fields, face significant challenges in real-time data acquisition, operational transparency, and system integration. This study presents a holistic SCADA-integrated framework specifically designed to enhance real-time production monitoring and operational intelligence in FPSO environments. The proposed framework also supports proactive decision-making, increased asset reliability, and optimized process control. Furthermore, it enables the seamless flow of actionable insights from subsea operations to central control units, thereby creating a more synchronized and adaptive production environment. This holistic approach not only targets technical efficiency but also aligns with broader industry trends such as digital transformation, remote operability, and sustainability. By offering a scalable model adaptable to various FPSO configurations and geographic conditions, it provides strategic advantages in cost reduction, risk mitigation, and productivity enhancement. Additionally, the study outlines a comprehensive methodology for the implementation, validation, and continuous improvement of the system, offering a roadmap for engineers, policymakers, and offshore operators in shaping the future of FPSO operations.

Özet

Derin deniz sahalarının geliştirilmesinde kilit öneme sahip varlıklar olan Yüzer Üretim, Depolama ve Boşaltma (FPSO) üniteleri, gerçek zamanlı veri toplama, operasyonel şeffaflık ve sistem entegrasyonunda önemli zorluklarla karşılaşmaktadır. Bu çalışma, FPSO ortamlarında gerçek zamanlı üretim izleme ve operasyonel yetenekleri geliştirmek için özel olarak tasarlanmış bütünsel bir SCADA entegre altyapısı sunmaktadır. Önerilen altyapı ayrıca proaktif karar verme, varlık güvenilirliğinin artırılması ve optimize edilmiş süreç kontrolünü desteklemektedir. Bunun yanında su altı operasyonlarında merkezi kontrol ünitelerine karşılaşabilecek riskli durumların sorunsuz akışını sağlayarak daha senkronize bir üretim ortamı oluşturmaktadır. Bu bütünsel yaklaşım sadece teknik verimliliği hedeflemekle kalmaz, aynı zamanda dijital dönüşüm, uzaktan kontrol ve sürdürülebilirlik gibi daha geniş endüstri istekleri ile de uyumludur. Çeşitli FPSO operastonlarına ve coğrafi koşullara uyarlanabilir bir model sunarak, maliyet düşürme, risk azaltma ve verimlilik artırmada stratejik avantajlar sağlamaktadır. Ek olarak, çalışma, sistemin uygulanması, doğrulanması ve sürekli iyileştirilmesi için kapsamlı bir metodoloji ortaya koyarak, mühendisler ve açık deniz operatörleri için FPSO operasyonlarının geleceğini şekillendirmede bir yol haritası sunmaktadır.
