The scope of the contract included project management, design, engineering, procurement, construction, and pre-commissioning services for the TLP. Modec International was awarded an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) for a tension leg platform (TLP) facility for the Shenzi field in July 2006. The scope of the contract included the engineering, fabrication, and installation of a system of two infield flowlines and six flowlines welded to steel catenary risers, as well as connecting three drill centres to the production platform. Technip was contracted for the flowlines, risers, and subsea structures for the Shenzi field development in February 2007. BHP holds a 22% stake in the Cleopatra pipeline. The gas is transported by a lateral pipeline to the existing Cleopatra pipeline. The crude oil produced in the field is transported through a 20in-diameter lateral pipeline to Ship Shoal 332 B. The produced water reinjection capacity of the TLP is approximately 125,000 barrels a day. The Shenzi TLP has an oil processing capacity of 100,000 barrels a day (bpd) and a gas handling capacity of 50 million cubic feet a day (mcfd).Īs many as 20 production and water injection wells can be tied back to the TLP which is permanently moored in a water depth of approximately 1,310m. Three more production wells were drilled between 20, while another water injection well was completed in the second quarter of 2016 to improve production in the southern part of the field. The drilling of these water injection wells was completed in August 2013 and the additional oil recovery through water injection was expected to be approximately 80 million barrels.

The Shenzi Water Injection programme executed as part of the Shenzi field development comprised three water injection wells and associated facilities to inject up to 125,000 barrels of water a day at a pressure of 7,000 pounds per square inch (psi). The Shenzi field was developed through a TLP located on Green Canyon block 653, and 16 production wells of which 14 wells were tied back to Shenzi platform with the remaining two connected to the Marco Polo platform. The Genghis Khan field was brought on-stream through a tieback to the Marco Polo tension leg platform (TLP) in 2007. The Shenzi field was discovered on Green Canyon block 654 in 2002, while nearby Genghis Khan field on Green Canyon blocks 652 and 608 was discovered in 2005.īoth the Shenzi and the Genghis Khan fields are part of the same geological structure. Located in approximately 1,310m-deep waters, the offshore field spans across the Green Canyon blocks 609, 610, 653, and 654.
