Description

  • The Agbami Field, lies 70 miles (113 km) off the coast of the central Niger Delta region and spans 45,000 acres (182 sq km). The Agbami field ranks among the largest single finds to date in deepwater West Africa
  • Discovered in 1998, the Agbami Field is at a water depth of approximately 4,800 feet (1,463 m)
  • Agbami is a subsea development with wells tied back to a floating production, storage and offloading vessel, the Agbami FPSO
  • A 10-well development program is expected to provide crude oil production capacity to offset production decline. Drilling began in May 2010 and is expected to continue through 2014
  • The Agbami floating production, storage and offloading vessel is the world’s largest FPSO
