  • Location: Block 17
  • Production start: 2001
  • Partners: Sonangol
  • Type: Girassol Crude Oil
  • Estimated Reserves:
  • Production Volume:

+++ Description

  • Located in water depths of 1,350 metres, 150 kilometres offshore, Girassol was the largest deepwater development to be brought onstream in the world at the time
  • The subsea installations consist of 70 km of infield pipelines linked to three riser towers carrying production to a Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) vessel. The FPSO, the largest of its type ever built, is capable of processing 200,000 barrels of oil per day and storing 2 million barrels
  • Production from the [[[Rosa Oil Field]]] and Jasmim oil field is tied back to the Girassol FPSO
    • Girassol Life Extension (GIRLIFEX) Project: Flexible pipes will be installed bypassing the rigid pipe bundles installed before production began. This will extend the life of the Girassol field

+++ Contractors

  • **KWsubsea:** Design of a repair system for deep water pipelines
  • Phase 2
    • **FMC:** manufacture and supply of subsea production equipment
    • **Technip:** project management, engineering, fabrication and installation of umbilicals, interconnecting power cable, recovery and disposal of four rigid spools, installation of eight new flexible spools
    • **Aker Solutions:** Delivery of two dynamic power and control steel tube umbilicals, one dynamic power cable and ancillary equipment
  • Girassol Life Extension (GIRLIFEX) Project
    • TechnipFMC: engineering, procurement, and supply of flowlines and connectors

+++ History

  • 1996 - Girassol Oil Field discovered
  • 2001 - First production started
  • 2003 - Start up of satellite field Jasmim
  • 2011 - FMC contract for manufacture and supply of subsea production equipment for Phase 2
  • 2012 - Technip awarded Phase 2 EPIC contract
  • 2023 - Contract awarded for Girassol Life Extension (GIRLIFEX) Project
