Ebok field operations summary of current work
Phase 1 well planning defined
FPSO status
- two main contenders have submitted bids. Currently under review
Wellhead platform options have been identified
MOPU/FSO development solution in progress
- has potential to be a competitive solution with full field capabilities
Drilling units short list compiled
- seven rigs identified all fit for purpose
- five immediately available
- indicative day rate of circa US$100,000/day
EHSS regulatory compliance process well underway

Ebok Phase 1 development - facilities
FPSOs /MOPU
Several proposals have been evaluated to date for FPSOs / MOPUs / FSOs
MOPU and FSO appears to be the most appropriate
Wellhead support structures
Multiple wellhead platforms are available for modification and
refurbishment
Preliminary engineering is continuing on a possible wellhead support
structure in association with a FPSO and a freestanding conductor
supported structure if the MOPU is used

Advantages of a MOPU vs FPSO
Flexible drilling schedule
Does not require a lift barge
Immediate access to produced fluid from wellhead
Savings on well support structure
Savings on flowlines
Easier & more cost effective to expand for a full field development

Gas solution
Low GOR oil: D1 70scf/stb
D2 315scf/stb
Requirements for gas
Gas lift gas for all producing wells
- estimated per well requirement 3mmscfg/d
Fuel gas requirement for FPSO power generation
Ebok-4 has been T&Ad with a mud-line suspension
- will be used to re-inject any surplus gas to comply with Government
regulations.
At this point in time it is considered unlikely that there will be any spare
gas for re-injection
