Description
- Wahoo is located 30-35 km north of Frade, with a water depth of 1,400m, and has a carbonate reservoir in the pre-salt layer at a depth of 5 to 7 thousand meters. The oil in the field is of excellent quality, with 30º API, low viscosity, and associated gas that will be used in the power generation of the Frade FPSO.
- The Wahoo base interconnection project includes the drilling of four producing wells, two injector wells, the installation of a subsea manifold with multiphase pumps for the flow of the oil produced and the water injected, and the tieback between the manifold and the Frade Oil Field
