Eni starts up Ndungu EP oil project offshore Angola
Italian energy major Eni said on Friday it has started production from the Ndungu Early Production (EP) development offshore Angola, and the project will reach 20,000 barrels per day of oil.
The field, located in Block 15/06 of the Angolan deep offshore, has been developed via the Ngoma floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, which was upgraded in 2021 in order to minimise emissions, Eni said. The project will help sustain the plateau at Ngoma, which has capacity of 100,000 bpd.
“The start-up of Ndungu EP is yet another example of how Eni Angola, in full cooperation with Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás e Biocombustíveis (ANPG) and partners, keeps creating value on Block 15/06 through its infrastructure-led Exploration strategy, generating a pipeline of fast-track subsea tie-backs, thus maximising the utilisation of existing facilities in the area in a sustainable manner,” the company said in a statement.
A further exploration and delineation campaign will be carried out in the first half of 2022 with the aim to assess the full potential of the overall asset of Ndungu, the company said. Ndungu EP is the third start-up achieved by Eni Angola in Block 15/06 in the last 7 months, after Cuica Early Production and Cabaca North Development Project.
