壳牌尼日利亚勘探与生产公司（SNEPCo）及其合作伙伴已对尼日利亚近海深水区Bonga North开发项目做出最终投资决定。

这将是壳牌运营的Bonga FPSO在 OML 118 的海底回接，水深超过 1,000 米。这艘 225,000 桶/天的船只于 2025 年开始运营，到 2023 年已生产了 10 亿桶原油。

对于 Bonga North，壳牌计划新建八口生产井和八口注水井；改造Bonga Main FPSO；并建设新的相关海底设施。

该公司估计， Bonga North的可采储量超过 3 亿桶油当量。在高峰期，这些油田的石油日产量应为 11 万桶，预计到 2020 年末投产。

Bonga 油田的其他合作伙伴包括埃索勘探与生产尼日利亚公司、尼日利亚阿吉普勘探公司和道达尔能源勘探与生产尼日利亚公司（代表尼日利亚国家石油公司 (NNPC)）。

Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Co. (SNEPCo) and its partners have taken FID on the deepwater Bonga North development offshore Nigeria.

This will be a subsea tieback to the Shell-operated Bonga FPSO in OML 118 where water depths exceed 1,000 m. The 225,000-bbl/d vessel started operations in 2025 and had produced 1 Bbbl of crude by 2023.

For Bonga North, Shell plans eight new producer and eight water injection wells; modifications to the Bonga Main FPSO; and new associated subsea facilities.

The company estimates recoverable reserves at Bonga North of more than 300 MMboe. At peak, these should produce 110,000 bbl/d of oil, with startup expected by the end of the decade.

Other partners in the Bonga field are Esso Exploration and Production Nigeria, Nigerian Agip Exploration, and TotalEnergies Exploration and Production Nigeria, on behalf of the Nigerian National Petroleum Co. (NNPC).
