| Description | Report examining MCP-01's long term use (1997 - 2007), in particular the decommissioning of the compression facilities and demanning the platform. In-depth consideration of numerous different permutations of compression facilities being mothballed or removed on a manned or demanned platform from the perspective of cost (capital and operating), technical practicality, capacity, safety, long and short term objectives, comparisons and conclusions. Many annexes, the majority either summarising the platform modifications necessary for each scenario, operating philosophy of a not-normally-manned platform or evolution of gas transport capacity requirement. Several tables, graphs and diagrams. Some annotations. Front cover annotated 'Pitot'. |
