<p>An offshore field management system which includes a composite riser, a floating buoy and a service vessel. The riser is extended from a subsea well head to the buoy. Conductors, preferably provided in the riser, are connected with a well telemetry system. The buoy has a floating or semi-submersible hull that includes a hatch covering a moonpool for receiving the riser. The buoy preferably includes satellite communication hardware and computer systems in communication with the well telemetry system via riser embedded conductors. The well environment can be remotely monitored using the buoy communication system. Servicing of the oilfield well is accomplished using the service vessel by docking the buoy in a bay formed in the service vessel. The service vessel is preferably a self-contained facility fitted with the equipment and materials necessary to carry out pre-determined well servicing operations. Service vessel personnel deploy the equipment and material into the riser via the buoy hatch after the buoy has been docked in a bay formed in the service vessel.</p> |
