Afren

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

When AFREN and its partners entered the development phase of the Ebok field, located in Block OML 67, Offshore Nigeria, they relied on Drakken personnel for the production design and storage facilities for the project. The development involved a wellhead conductor structure next to a jack-up MOPU containing the oil production equipment, gas lift and water injection equipment together with supporting utilities. The stabilized crude oil was transferred to a spread moored FSO, which was then exported to tandem moored shuttle tankers. The production equipment installed on the MOPU featured a multi-functional design. It had the ability to receive drilling formation fluids and was capable of sea water injection, gas lift and produced water treatment. The production equipment had the capability to produce 18 wells at a rate of 100,000 BPD, with a maximum of 50,000 BOPD. Drakken personnel provided project and construction management support for all controls, instrumentation, essential power generation and total power distribution on the MOPU. The project was turnkey and included project management, design, procurement, field construction and commissioning.
