From a small-scale, onshore operator to a leader in the deepwater Wilcox trend, LLOG is pushing boundaries. The company’s success at Salamanca demonstrates how teamwork, passion, and perseverance bridged the gap between promising geology and first production.
Growth in Keathley Canyon and the Wilcox is strategic for the industry. Still, the region poses considerable challenges, from its location 200 miles offshore to its complex geology and HPHT drilling environment. This Offshore and Oil & Gas Journal eBook explains how LLOG faced these challenges step by step to reach first production.
This unique story includes:
- LLOG's refurbishment of the decommissioned Independence Hub FPU
- A bifurcated approach to financing — separating infrastructure and upstream costs to optimize capital
