The Luiperd-Brulpadda project involves the development of the Luiperd and Brulpadda gas condensate fields located on Block 11B/12B in the Outeniqua Basin, 175km offshore the southern coast of South Africa.
Spanning 19,000km2, Block 11B/12B lies at water depths ranging between 200m and 1,800m.
The production right application for the project development is expected to be submitted by September 2022 and the final investment decision (FID) is targeted for 2023. First gas from the project is expected to be produced by the end of 2025.
The project will be developed in a phased manner. The first phase will involve the drilling of at least three gas-producing wells at the Luiperd field. The wells will be developed through an early production system and connected to the existing F-A gas production platform operated by state-owned oil company PetroSA.
The gas produced from the field will be supplied to PetroSA’s gas-to-liquid (GTL) refinery at Mossel Bay for processing.
The second phase of development will include the drilling of up to 17 wells and the construction of an additional gas production facility that will process more than twice the gas and condensate volumes processed by the existing F-A platform.
The fields will be developed by installing a subsea production system, including a pipeline end termination (PLET) and manifold as well as subsea umbilicals, risers and flowlines (SURF) and pipelines.
