02JAN2019 - NEWS - Oil major BP and partners approves major LNG project offshore Senegal and Mauritania in West Africa

Oil major BP and partners announced on Friday the final investment decision for the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim liquefied natural gas (LNG) project offshore Senegal and Mauritania in West Africa. The ultra-deep development, Africa’s deepest, received final investment decision after the governments of Senegal and Mauritania and the partners in the project—BP, Kosmos Energy, and the two countries’ national oil companies Petrosen and SMHPM—agreed on the production sharing terms. The Greater Tortue Ahmeyim project will produce gas from an ultra-deepwater subsea system and mid-water floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, BP said. The gas will then be transferred to a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility at a nearshore hub on the Mauritania and Senegal maritime border.
