The Tiber project in the United States deepwaters will be supported by a subsea boosting system from SLB's OneSubsea in terms with a engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract from bp.
The Tiber project is a greenfield development by bp, which is being advanced alsongside bp's Kaskida initiative. Both projects — which target prolific Paleogene reserves — leverage the same supplier-led, standardised high-pressure subsea pump system solution.
“We look forward to helping bp realise even more value from their Paleogene developments,” said Mads Hjelmeland, CEO at SLB OneSubsea. “We are seeing more and more operators adopt subsea boosting strategies that free up topside space and reduce power requirements.”
bp has also booked Seatrium for the development of the Tiber FPU with engineering, procurement, construction and onshore commissioning services. With a capacity of 80000 bopd, the Tiber FPU will produce from the Tiber and Guadalupe fields in the Gulf of America.
