Abstract

A single well development system has a base structure (8) through which the well is drilled and completed by means of a wellhead (6). A retrievable Christmas tree module (10) containing a Christmas tree (12) connected to a wellhead connector (14) is mounted on the base structure (8) by the wellhead connector (14) so as to receive well fluid from the wellhead. The module (10) contains two fluid processing separators (16) for processing fluid received from the well via the wellhead (6) and the Christmas tree (12). In a modification, additional modules are mounted on the base structure and each additional module has a fluid processing separator (16), and the Christmas tree module routes production fluid to the separators via the base structure (8).
