l Economics: production may not justify the CAPEX for a platform.
l Field reservoir areas may not be reached by delineated drilling from surface wells.
l The water depth may be too great to use a surface well platform.
l Early Production: fast-track development is required.

Wellhead ProfilesWellhead Profiles
l All wellheads have an external profile
for BOP or tree connectors
l Cameron “hub” or Vetco “mandrel”
profiles are the most common.
l Cooperative license agreements
allow competitors to provide profile
selections.
l The wellhead profile must match the
BOP or tree connector.
l BOP connectors can be changed out
but subsea trees require a
conversion spool called a tubing
spool.

Why do we need them?l To enable remote control of subsea production wells by:
- Operation of subsea valves
- Adjusting subsea chokes
l To enable the safe operation of subsea wells by:- Closing valves on command
- Performing shutdown operations
- Enabling interlock functions
l To monitor conditions during production by:- Readback of produced fluid conditions
- Warning of unstable/ undesirable conditions
- Continually updating all system information
