associated offloading calm buoy, 2 productions loops connecting six subsea manifolds with 21 production wells and 3
injection lines connecting 23 water injection wells through 52 km of flowlines. An additional 20km gas export line ties in to the
Akpo export pipeline to Amenam. Production is 200 kBPD of oil, 456 kBPD of water and 127 mmscfd of gas export capacity.

Egina OLT Buoy is a Catenary Anchored Leg Moored (CALM) Buoy of about 1000ton weight moored to the seabed at water
depth of about 1445m. It will provide support to two (2) Oil Offloading Lines, the Floating hoses and to the tanker mooring
hawsers.
The buoy mooring system will comprise of chain/wire/chain lines in a semi-taut configuration connected to a spread of 3x3
suction piles. Oil Offloading lines will be two (2) unbonded flexible (20.5 in), transferring the stabilized oil to the buoy located
at about 2km from the FPSO.
Contract Effective Date was April 2013. The management of the Egina integrated project is located in Lagos, supported (as
necessary) by a core of specialists based at Lagos and other locations and including a dedicated team for inspection of
