Overview: Historically, deepwater exploration has been primarily targeting oil plays. In recent years, deepwater exploration for gas has gained greater focus. This is spurred by projected greater global demand for gas due to increased awareness of gas being a 'green' and 'clean' fuel of choice for the future. Advances in deepwater production technologies (subsea multiphase systems) have enabled the development of fields located over 100km from shore in water depths greater than 1,000m. This article puts forth the significant technical and commercial challenges in development of deepwater gas fields.
