API 17G2 RISERLESS SUBSEA PUMPING SYSTEMS
STATUS REPORT
1. STATUS
The 17G2 Riserless Subsea Pumping Systems Group is meeting on a quarterly frequency via
telecoms. Earlier meetings dedicated time to solicit membership from individuals with coveted skill
sets, obtain alignment of what should be included/excluded in the document, and schematic reviews
of known systems that are in service globally. Membership is robust but still lacking in a couple
areas necessary to complete deliverables (i.e. expertise to develop and mature the equivalents of
Annex B and C for spooled fluid conduit products and their associated deployment configurations).
It was decided that the G2 Document will follow the same format as the main 17G document. As
such, draft clauses for Scope, System Requirements, and Functional Requirements are at various
stages of development, review, and editing at this time. The G2 Group is sharing work in progress
and documentation with the other Baby G teams in an effort to obtain alignment. In addition, some of
the work product is relevant to other Baby G’s as there are a couple overlap team initiatives (i.e. fluid
conduit subject matter is common with G3 Riserless Light Well Intervention efforts and composite
design methodology as it relates to mechanical performance is common with the G1 Non Ferrous
Alloys effort).
