Juniper, BPTT’S first subsea field development, is located 50mi off the southeast coast of Trinidad, in approximately 360ft water depth.
Assembled and tested at the OneSubsea fabrication plant in Johor, Malaysia, BPTT said that Juniper’s trees are among the largest and heaviest ever built, each weighing about 76-tonne.
After testing is complete at the Labidco yard, the trees will move to the Juniper field.
The Juniper project will take gas from the Corallita and Lantana fields, and have a production capacity of approximately 590 MMcf/d of gas, with first gas from the facility expected in 2017. Gas from Juniper will flow to the Mahogany B hub via a new 10km flowline.
Drilling commenced in 2015 and first gas from the facility is expected in 2017. The completions activity currently in progress on all five wells will take place by Q4 2016.
“The arrival of the trees is another significant milestone in the delivery of the Juniper project. BPTT has committed to maintaining investment in Trinidad and Tobago, and to further develop the offshore acreage once the investment climate continues to support further investments in the upstream,” Norman Christie, BPTT regional president said.
Juniper will become BPTT’S 14th offshore production facility.
BPTT has a 100% working interest in the Juniper development.
