Case History Kizomba

Subsea Production Expansion Kizomba is a deepwater oil development between 150 to 400 km offshore of Angola It consists of three sites with a combined estimate of 26 billion barrels of oil

bull Kizomba A including the Hungo and Chocalho fields in up to 4200 ft (1280 m) of water production began in 2004

bull Kizomba B including the Kissanje and Dikanza fields in up to 3400 ft (1036 m) of water production began in 2005

bull Kizomba C including the Mondo Saxi and Batuque fields in up to 2400 ft (732 m) of water production began in 2008

The Kizomba Satellites project began in 2008 with Phase 1 developing Mavacola and Clochas assets tied back to Kizomba A and B FPSOs through a looped flowline system Phase 2 will develop the Mondo South Bavuca Kakocha Saxi and Batuque assets all tied into existing subsea infrastructure at Kizomba A B and C

We supplied a range of topsides equipment as well as all core subsea production equipment for 28 new wells in all First production from Phase 1 came in July 2012

Primary manufacturing and assembly were based at our Angola facility The project was completed with an industry-leading safety record

Case History Gorgon Longer field life Greenfield LNG Project Gorgon contains about 40 trillion cubic feet of gas It includes the worldrsquos largest carbon capture and sequestration project and will have an LNG output of 15 million tons per year It is the largest single-resource natural gas venture in Australian history and one of the largest natural gas projects in the world GE Oil amp Gas has been involved since the beginning providing expertise and core technologies for both the onshore and subsea components of this industry milestone effort

Our Subsea Systems team began designing subsea production control and transmission systems for Gorgon in 2008 Total project scope includes subsea wellhead systems and trees with retrievable choke modules to control and manage gas production and production monitoring and control systems so the complete subsea infrastructure can be remotely controlled from Barrow Island Our trees are built specifically for Gorgonrsquos high flow rates ndash a 7-inch full-bore design with twice the capacity of a typical subsea tree

The project is progressing well By mid-2013 we completed 19 subsea trees 16 of which have been delivered to Australia The final four trees are due to be shipped from Aberdeen by the end of summer 2013 Our first two trees were safely installed in early-2013 with no significant downtime despite a week-long delay caused by a passing cyclone They are now in 1350 m (4429 ft) of water at the Jansz-Io field about 190 km from shore - it is one of the deepest subsea installations ever undertaken in Australia

In keeping with our unique industry-wide single-source capabilities GE Oil amp Gas is also supplying the five power generation trains and three main refrigerant compression trains for Barrow Islandrsquos gas treatment and liquefaction facilities and the pioneering CO2 sequestration system
