FDPSO Azurite - A Success

Murphy Oil Corporation’s President and CEO, David M. Wood:
“The Azurite project marks an innovative approach to
minimizing the cost and maximizing the value of a
deepwater development. Production from the field will
continue to ramp up for the remainder of the year as
additional wells are brought on stream.”

Lessons Learned


The general challenges of a “heated market”



Interpretation of class rules for new concepts



Optimization of drilling and FPSO yard

integration work


Definition of interfaces drilling/production



Freeze of “conceptual designs”



Close co-operation between Operations and
Project teams – a key to success



Communication over time zones
Optimizations will be realized during the next FDPSO project
14

FPSO - Demand


Pipeline of floating production
projects continue to grow



Drivers for F(D)PSO concept
remains intact



Leading indicators point to
strong long-term demand



Supply side decreasing

Increased
exploration
in “difficult”
areas

High cost for production and
drilling units

FDPSO Benefits?

Yes

Lack of infrastructure
Remote
areas

Marginal

FDPSO Competitiveness
• Benefits from “fast tracking” the field development
• Availability and cost of drilling rigs
• The length of the drilling program, and need for future wells
• The number of wells that can be drilled with “active” spread mooring
• The complexity of the wells and need for future well intervention
• Benefits from simultaneous drilling and production

• Benefits from a phased field development (EWT period, EPS etc)
• Re-deployment on future fields
• The environmental conditions at the field
Competitiveness is determined by a range of factors
