Subsea wells are specialized oil and gas extraction sites located on the ocean floor. These wells are drilled beneath the seabed to access underwater reservoirs of hydrocarbons. They are essential for tapping into resources that are otherwise difficult to reach, allowing energy companies to produce oil and gas from deep underwater locations.
To operate effectively, subsea wells use advanced technology, including subsea trees and umbilicals. A subsea tree is a complex assembly of valves and equipment that controls the flow of oil and gas. Umbilicals are cables that provide power and communication between the surface and the subsea equipment, ensuring safe and efficient operations.
