ExxonMobil lets subsea contract for Liza Phase 2
Esso Exploration & Production Guyana Ltd has let a contract to TechnipFMC for the engineering of the subsea system for the proposed Liza Phase 2 project on the Stabroek block offshore Guyana.
Following engineering and subject to requisite government approvals, project sanction, and an authorisation to proceed with the next phase, TechnipFMC will manufacture and deliver the subsea equipment, which would include 30 enhanced vertical deep-water trees and associated tooling, as well as eight manifolds and associated controls and tie-in equipment.
In support of this project, TechnipFMC will continue hiring and training Guyanese engineers.
The Liza Phase 2 development is 193 kilometres offshore Guyana in 1,500-1,900 metres of water.
The potential production concept for Liza Phase 2 involves a second floating production, storage and offloading vessel and related subsea equipment, umbilical, risers and flowlines. The proposed development concept is similar to that of Liza Phase 1.
About 35-40 wells may be drilled at two subsea drill centres, consisting of a combination of producers and injectors to support production of oil, injection of water, and reinjection of associated gas. The FPSO will have an estimated production capacity of 190,000-220,000 b/d of oil.
