Are You Ready to Fuel Your Mind?
GATE Energy was founded with the mission of doing things right the first time. This simple yet powerful mission drove us to build processes and systems that have allowed us to hire, train, and develop graduate engineers into industry recognized subject matter experts and thought leaders.
Our Technical Blog Gives You Access To:
On-demand training videos developed by our industry experts
Easy-to-use simulation tools that will provide an 80-20 solution for typical production monitoring and optimization workflows
Technical articles and abstracts centered around energy industry knowledge and lessons learned
We want to do our part and make sure that new decision makers have the right tools, guidance, mentors, and coaches to help them make the right decision the first time, every time.
Subsea Integrity Management: Materials Selection & Monitoring
In this GATEKEEPER, the philosophy around the materials selection and corrosion monitoring is discussed as the primary design barrier to corrosion and cracking in critical parts of a subsea system.
Artificial Lift For Subsea Applications
Artificial lift methods transfer energy to the produced fluid with the objectives of reducing the fluid density and the pressure head or boosting the flowing pressure.
Operational Marine Risk Management: Process Safety
This GATEKEEPER will discuss, at a high level, the decision support tools and methodologies that can be implemented to assist in the delivery of incident free execution of projects through focused risk mitigation in the key process safety impact areas of station keeping and vessel integrity.
Riser Integrity Monitoring For HPHT Wells
In order to avoid potential riser failures or replacement campaigns for anticipated service lives that may extend to 30 years or more, process facility components such as risers and flowline systems must now be subjected to more enhanced integrity monitoring through the whole of their service life.
Introduction To Risers
With offshore oil and gas recovery pushing the limit with deeper and deeper water, it comes as no surprise that the technology regarding risers has evolved to meet the demands of harsher environments.
Subsea Integrity Management - Inspectability & Maintainability Review
Subsea Integrity Management is defined as the management of a subsea system or asset to ensure that it delivers the design requirements while not adversely affecting life or the health of the environment throughout the required life of the field
Subsea Chemical Cleanliness Specifications
This article compares the common approaches to specifying chemical cleanliness and subsequently presents high-level guidance that can be used to select appropriate quality control criteria for those chemicals deployed through long-distance umbilicals to subsea and sub-surface injection locations
Common Pitfalls During Subsea Cathodic Protection Design
Common pitfalls during cathodic protection (CP) design include electrical continuity, current drain, hydrogen embrittlement of susceptible alloys, anode placement, anode chemistry, and test point placement.
NACE 02064 - Laboratory Investigation of Corrosion and Corrosion Protection of a Candidate Umbilical Material for Subsea Production Service
Umbilical functionality is critical to proper operation of subsea production systems, and for this reason it is important to properly select materials and corrosion protection options for this service.
