Issue 14

The critical role that communications plays in remote offshore oil and gas operations cannot be overstated. We explore the difficulties of providing secure and reliable offshore communications for the industry.

In the latest issue we find out about the importance of digital geospatial data in the operational and risk management process, explore new efforts to improve the safety of helicopter operations in the North Sea, look at the future of Italy’s offshore oil and gas industry and ask if the risk will outweigh the reward for investors in Israel’s natural gas operation.

Moreover, we look the world’s largest oil fields and profile a new technology that could revolutionise the process of treating water as a by-product of oil and gas extraction.
