Abstract
The present paper describes a new offshore field development solution, Next Generation Subsea Production System (NextGen SPS), that aims to overcome the technical and commercial limitations of the current offshore field development concepts (dry tree or subsea tree) in ultra-deep water
(more than 1500 m). The key developments of the NextGen SPS, including its main characteristics, stability characteristics and optimal design on the riser system, are presented and discussed. The series of studies demonstrates that the NextGen SPS offers improved technical and commercial performance,
higher levels of safety, reduced interface complexity and improved development flexibility for field development in ultra-deep water.
