As part of Phase 1 development, four wells in the Shenandoah field have been ramped up by Beacon Offshore Energy to attain the target rate of 100,000 bopd / 117,000 boepd.
The Shenandoah floating production system (FPS) has proved its top tier operability as it delivered exceptional well productivity, reliability and uptime metrics, while accomplishing the ramp up target within 75 days following first production.
The Shenandoah reserves, located at reservoir depths of approximately 30,000 ft true vertical depth, are being developed utilising industry leading high pressure 20,000 psi technology which Beacon expects to facilitate development of other similarly situated fields in the Inboard Wilcox trend.
The Shenandoah FPS located on Walker Ridge 52 approximately 150 miles off the coast of Louisiana in a water depth of approximately 5,800 feet has a nameplate capacity of 120,000 bopd and 140 mmcfd. The Shenandoah FPS has been designed as a regional host facility that will enable development of additional resources including the Beacon-operated Monument and Shenandoah South discoveries which together with Shenandoah are expected to hold recoverable resources of nearly 600 MMBOE. Beacon is working alongside HEQ Deepwater and Navitas Petroleum to develop the Shenandoah project.
