Yes, welding inspection, coating inspection, and a bit of non destructive examination.

. Total's Usan Deepwater's West Capella is even Bigger than Egina, produces 180KBoPD.

Congrat to TOTAL, they've been trying since the days Akpo field Project &subsequent discoveries.

BTW i'm sure it's sailing from Lagos to offshore Niger-Delta for production to start.

I LOVE TOTAL.

BTT:
Edited.

No. This is wrong information.

Most importantly, what we need is a refining vessel. That is what our mediocre leaders should focus on.

Can't the government legislate that our oil multinationals and trading countries have (at least) one refinery HERE in Nigeria as one of the prerequisites for doing business?

We must solve this refinery embarrassment.

deepwater:

Oga west Capella is a rig just like west Jupiter, west Saturn and Jack Ryan they are drill ships and not FPSOs

Owned by Seadril and transocean respectively not Total

pawesome:
Abeg make someone epp me explain the use of that machine...ayam not understanding

jpphilips:


If it produces 108kbopd, how is it bigger than Bonga that does 225kbopd?

RillJ:
This was initiated and paid for by Jonathan, I know for certain. This government will not acknowledge this.

Egina FPSO Arrives Nigeria

The Nigeria oil and gas industry recorded another milestone as the the $3.3 billion Egina Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) vessel arrived in Lagos Nigeria from South Korea for oil production from the $16 billion 200,000 barrels per day capacity Egina deepwater oilfield Located in the Oil Mining Lease (OML) 130 offshore.

The vessel arrived at the Samsung Yard (SHI-MCI FZE quayside) in Lagos on Tuesday.

The FPSO, which was built by Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI), sailed away from the quay side at Samsung Yard in Geoje, South Korea, on October 31, 2017, on its long anticipated journey to Nigeria, which was initially estimated to last for 90 days.

The Egina oilfield, which will add 200,000 barrels per day of crude oil to Nigeria’s daily production when it comes on stream by the end of 2018, is being developed by Total Upstream Nigeria Limited (TUPNL) at the cost of $16 billion.

Egina FPSO is a giant oil production ship operated by Total for the production of crude from its Egina oil field deep offshore Nigeria. The vessel, which left South Korea on October 31, last year, is in Lagos for further integration of its six topsides at LADOL Free Trade Zone, Tarkwa Bay, Lagos. The vessel had sailed for three months.

The Egina FPSO has a storage capacity of 2.2 million barrels of crude oil and a daily production of 108,000 barrels per day capacity. It is 35 meters high, 330 meters long, with a flare boom that is 100 meters high just as it has capacity to accommodate 200 people at a time.
