Description
The Mad Dog 2 project delivered the Argos Floating Production Unit in the Gulf of Mexico and achieved first oil in April 2023. A key challenge arose in mid-2022 when integrity issues were discovered in two out of four production riser flexible joints during hydrotest. This presentation covers the 18-month journey the project team endured to investigate the issue, attempt offshore remediation, safely enable facility startup and to ultimately replace the flexible joints. The presentation will share the key levers bp employed to make the complex remediation a success while keeping personnel safety and environmental protection at the forefront of decision making.
