API TR 17TR13, 1st Edition, March 2016 - General Overview of Subsea Production Systems

Subsea production systems can range in complexity from a single satellite well with a flowline linked to a fixed platform, to several wells on a template producing and transferring via subsea processing facilities to a fixed or floating facility, or directly to an onshore installation.

The objectives of this document are:

— to describe typical examples of the various subsystems and components that can be combined, in a variety of ways, to form complete subsea production systems;

— to describe the interfaces with typical downhole and topsides equipment that are relevant to subsea production systems;

— to provide some basic design guidance on various aspects of subsea production systems.
