10 years later, Pazflor wins another OTC awards for Total E&P Angola

In addition to very deep water, Pazflor, operational since 2011, presented an unprecedented problem: how to process two oils from distinct geological eras – the Oligocene and Miocene era – with different characteristics. Multiphase pumps and submarine separators enable liquids and gases to be separated on sea bottom, and a network of some 49 wells and circuits connected to the FPSO Pazflor mean that Total’s capacity for innovation remained in the limelight in 2013, when it was awarded the IPTC prize in Beijing in March, and the OTC prize in Houston in May, 10 years on from the first award for Girassol.
