Perenco Congo installed the new Kombi 2 platform on Kombi-Likalala-Libondo II (KLL II) field offshore Congo-Brazzaville.

The new mobile offshore production unit has improved water and effluent treatment, increased associated gas recovery, and 8 MW of electricity generated by two gas turbines. Total investment in the KLL II project was over $200 million.

Kombi 2 will host a six-well drilling campaign starting in 2026, with the aim of increasing production, extending the life of the field.

Connection work is currently under way, with commissioning scheduled for early March 2026.
