French engineering services provider Doris Engineering has been awarded an advisor contract by the Senegalese ministry of petroleum and energies for the development of oil & gas projects offshore Senegal.
This two-year mission consists in reviewing the optimization and the robustness of the field development performed on these projects to be in line with the Ministry expectations. It focuses on two projects: Grand Tortue Ahmeyim, operated by BP, and the SNE project, operated by Woodside.
Grand Tortue Ahmeyim is located at the border between Senegal and Mauritania and lies in ultradeep-water. The facilities under review include the subsea network, the FPSO and the FLNG.
The SNE Deepwater Oil Field is located in the Rufisque, Sangomar and Sangomar Deep Blocks, within the Senegalese portion of the Mauritania-Senegal-Guinea Bissau Basin. The subsea network and the FPSO are also part of the review.
This project is a great opportunity for Doris to train Senegalese engineers to the Oil & Gas deep-water developments and to Doris methods and tools.
Nicolas Parsloe, CEO of Doris Group said: “This award is the recognition by the Senegalese Government of Doris expertise in LNG and Oil & Gas deepwater projects. It is also the result of a good communication with GES-Petrogaz and understanding of their requirements. This is in line with the consultancy missions that we have performed alongside NOC’s in West Africa during the last twenty years, and in line with our strategy to work hand-in-hand with NOC’s and regulatory authorities. We are proud to support Senegal in its development in the oil & gas sector."
