Major Technology Gaps<br />

• Current <strong>Subsea</strong> Technology Can Not Meet <strong>Oil</strong> <strong>and</strong> Grease Limitation for Discharge<br />

– Installed systems<br />

– Planned systems<br />

– Technology under development<br />

• <strong>Subsea</strong> equipment design to withst<strong>and</strong> collapse pressure<br />

– Large volume vessels required in current water treatment technology<br />

• Potentially have to pump water for discharge<br />

– High volume<br />

– Large pressure differential<br />

– High power requirement<br />

– Pump technology is mature since only water is discharged<br />

• Accurate Monitoring <strong>of</strong> Discharged <strong>Water</strong><br />

– <strong>Oil</strong> <strong>and</strong> Grease<br />

– Sampling for measurements in laboratory <strong>of</strong> oil <strong>and</strong> grease, toxicity etc<br />

• H<strong>and</strong>ling <strong>of</strong> Start-Up <strong>and</strong> Upset Conditions<br />

– Storage Issues<br />
