Summary Information

  • Operator: BP
  • Country: Mauritania / Senegal
  • Location:
  • Production start:
  • Partners: BP, Kosmos
  • Type: Oil & Gas
  • Estimated Reserves: 20 TCF of gas
  • Production Volume:

Description

  • The initial phase of the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim project will produce gas from an ultra-deepwater subsea system comprising of four wells, and a mid-water floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, which will process the gas, removing heavier hydrocarbon components. The gas will then be transferred to a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility, Greater Tortue FLNG Project at a nearshore hub located on the Mauritania and Senegal maritime border.
  • The project involves a sharing of resources between Senegal and Mauritania
  • The Tortue, Ahmeyim and Guembeul gas fields make up the development

Contractors

  • TechnipFMC: FEED for the FPSO
  • CIMC Raffles: Accommodation platform
  • KBRFront End Engineering Design (FEED) contract for Phase 1
  • McDermott: FEED for the subsea umbilicals, risers and flowlines (SURF) scope for the project
  • BHGE: FEED for the subsea production system (SPS) scope

History

  • 2015 - Tortue field discovered
