New Orleans – Eni announced the production start-up from the Lucius Field in the Gulf of Mexico deepwater, 240 miles south of the Louisiana coast, United States. Lucius, which is in approximately 7,000 feet of water, has a production secured through 6 subsea wells tied back to a moored production handling spar connected to the shore via dedicated oil and gas pipelines. The spar has a design capacity of 80,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) and 450 million standard cubic feet per day (MMscfd) of gas. Once all wells are ramped up, Eni’s share of the Lucius daily production is expected to be approximately 7,000 boed. (9colonne)
