Azule Energy has signed an Agreement for Preliminary Activities (APA) with Yinson Azalea Production Pte Ltd to commence all preliminary activities for the provision, operation and maintenance of a FPSO asset for the Agogo Integrated West Hub Development Project offshore Angola.

Agogo will be the third FPSO on Block 15/06, operated by Eni Angola (now part of Azule Energy). The field was discovered in 2019 as part of Eni Angola’s very successful infrastructure-led exploration strategy in the country.

Tenders were issued by Eni in July 2021 for a project targeting a peak production of 120,000 bopd. Yinson is in charge of providing the FPSO, whose hull will be converted at the Huarun Dadong Dockyard in China.

Full details on the development of Block 15/06 are available in the “Projects” section within your Hawilti+ research terminal.
