The video, issued by oil and gas company Energean, depicts the hull keel laying of the FPSO ‘Energean Power’ that took place on Saturday 13th April 2019 at COSCO Zhoushan yard, China.
This comes as the company announced this week a significant gas discovery at the Karish North exploration well, off Israel. Preliminary analysis indicates initial gas in place estimates of between 1 Tcf (28 Bcm) and 1.5 Tcf (42 Bcm).
The Karish North discovery will be commercialised via a tie-back to the Energean Power FPSO, which is located 5.4km from the Karish North well.
The FPSO is being built with total processing and export capacity of 8 Bcm/yr (775 mmcf/d), which will enable Karish North, and future discoveries, to be monetised.
We are delighted to be announcing this significant new gas discovery at Karish North, which further demonstrates the attractiveness of our acreage offshore Israel. We are building the Energean Power FPSO with spare capacity, which will enable us to quickly, safely and economically develop both Karish North and future discoveries,
…said Mathios Rigas, CEO of Energean.
