Chevron's Aseng project advances with subsea infrastructure contract

Noble Energy EG Ltd., a Chevron Corp. company, has let a contract to Subsea 7 for the subsea installation scope on the Aseng Gas Monetization Project offshore Equatorial Guinea.

The work covers the transport and installation of about 19 km of rigid production flowline and 20 km of umbilicals, along with associated subsea structures and tie-ins in water depths of 800 m.

Project management and engineering will begin immediately and will be managed from Subsea7’s Paris office, with additional support from teams in Lisbon and Equatorial Guinea.

Offshore activities are expected to begin this year. 

Gas volumes from Aseng are expected to underpin the technical and commercial viability of multiple downstream and upstream developments under the Extended Gas Mega Hub initiative, including the Alen Tail, Yoyo-Yolanda, new drilling in Chevron-operated blocks, and potential cross-border gas flows through Gulf of Guinea pipeline infrastructure.
