Pivotree is a Western Australian start-up commercialising the Pivotree Small Oilfield Production System, which creates a step-change in small field development and production economics to unlock stranded oilfield assets. The system combines novel patent-pending components with conventional subsea oil and gas equipment, eliminating the need for conventional oilfield infrastructure or access to a subsea pipeline, and the need for significant structural changes to the off-take vessel, which vastly reduces CAPEX and OPEX. Importantly the Pivotree system decreases the time from drilling to production, which greatly improves the net present value for such investments. www.pivotree.com.au
