DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
The Pazflor project marks the first-ever use of subsea separation technology offshore West Africa, and it’s also a world-first use of subsea separation technology in a development of such scale. Located in the prolific Block 17, some 93 miles (150 km) offshore of Angola, Pazflor will produce oil and gas from 25 subsea wells, supported by 22 water injection and two gas injection wells, drilled in four separate reservoirs in water depths of 2,000 to 4,000 feet (600 to 1,200 m).
