Project Profile
Value: $650
Startup Year: 2016
The project will transport hydrocarbons from the Vanza and Longui reservoirs in the Pinda formation. In total they will bring in production of up to 75,000 b/d of oil, 450 MMcf/d of gas and 15,000 b/d of condensate.
There will be a wellhead platform over Longui at a water depth of around 122m and another over Vanza in a water depth of 107m. The central production and compression platform will also be situated at Vanza along with the quarters platform. The last three platforms will be connected by bridges. The project is being designed as a hub for future tiebacks of other fields in the area.
The liquids will be exported around 10km to an existing pipeline while the gas will end up at the Angola LNG plant via a new 25km pipeline to the planned Sanha Auxiliary platform.
