LLOG Exploration orders subsea trees for the Shenandoah Project in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico

LLOG Exploration Offshore, L.L.C. has announced the signing of a subsea tree order with TechnipFMC for its Shenandoah project in deepwater of the Gulf of Mexico  (“GOM”).  This order is the first material equipment order for the Shenandoah project and the first of its kind for subsea trees designed for pressures up to 20,000 pounds per square inch (“PSI”).

LLOG  operates  the Shenandoah  discovery,  located  in  the  Unit  comprised  of  Walker Ridge  blocks  51, 52,  and  53 in  the  deepwater GOM,  approximately  200 miles  south  of  New  Orleans,  on  behalf  of  the Shenandoah  partners  Venari  Offshore,  LLC,  Navitas  Petroleum  and  Beacon  Offshore  Energy.  

The leases  are  currently  held  under a  Suspension  of  Production  (“SOP”)  and  will  be  developed  using  a new  floating  production  system.   The  partnership  will drill  multiple  wells  to  develop  the  estimated  100 to 400 million  barrels  targeting  previously  discovered  oil-bearing  Upper  and  Lower  Wilcox-reservoirs.  

The oil and rock qualities  for  the  Shenandoah  development  are  both  best-in-class  for  the  emerging Wilcox  production  trend.
