San Donato Milanese (MI), July 24, 2024 - Eni announces that the naming ceremony of the Floating Production, Storage and Offloading Unit (FPSO) Petrojarl Kong and the Floating Storage and Offloading Unit (FSO) Yamoussoukro was held today in Dubai. The two vessels will significantly increase production from the Baleine field, located offshore Côte d'Ivoire, the largest discovery ever made in the country.
The ceremony was attended by Côte d'Ivoire's Minister of Petroleum, Mines and Energy Mamadou Sangafowa Coulibaly, Petroci CEO Fatoumata Sanogo, and Eni's Chief Operating Officer Natural Resources Guido Brusco.
With the christening of the vessels, phase 2 of the Baleine project is now in full swing, in line with the record timing of phase 1. After just 12 months on site in a challenging market environment, the refurbished units are preparing to set sail for the Ivory Coast, where they will be anchored about 50km from the coast, alongside the FPSO Baleine that entered operation in August 2023.
With the startup of Phase 2, scheduled for December 2024, total production from the Baleine field will rise to 60,000 barrels of oil per day and 70 million cubic feet of associated gas (equivalent to 2 million cubic meters of associated gas), significantly increasing current production.
The Baleine project strengthens Côte d'Ivoire's role in the regional and international energy market. In addition, through the adoption of cutting-edge technologies and industry-leading initiatives designed in collaboration with institutions and already underway, it will be the first net zero-emission Upstream (Scope 1 and 2) development on the African continent.
Eni has been operating in Côte d'Ivoire since 2015 where it has an equity production of about 22,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day and participates in six blocks in Ivorian deepwater: CI-101, CI-205, CI-401, CI-501, CI-801 and CI- 802, all with the same partner Petroci Holding. The company is active in the country with initiatives ranging from hydrocarbon production to vegetable oil production for biorefining, as well as projects to improve access to health, education and training, contributing to the country's economic, social and energy development.
