Greater Western Flank Phase-3 and Lambert Deep projects, Australia
Name of the Project
Greater Western Flank Phase-3 (GWF-3) and Lambert Deep projects.
Location
The planned activities will be undertaken in permit areas WA-5-L, WA-16-L and WA-3-L in the Carnavon basin off the shore of north-western Australia.
Project Owner/s
Woodside Energy.
Project Description
Woodside is planning to undertake drilling, construction, installation, precommissioning and topside modification activities to support the proposed GWF-3 and Lambert Deep projects.
Woodside is proposing to develop and produce hydrocarbons from the Goodwyn GH reservoir and Lambert Deep field to support ongoing production from the North West Shelf project.
The proposed activities comprise the drilling of four new production wells that will be tied back to existing subsea infrastructure through subsea Xmas trees, flexible flowlines, production manifolds and service umbilicals.
The proposed activities are planned to start in the first quarter of 2021, which will include the Lambert Deep well, the three GWF-3 wells and related subsea installation.
Modifications to topside infrastructure aboard the Angel platform will also be undertaken to support the Lambert Deep project.
Contingent intervention, and workover or redrill activities on the GWF-3 and Lambert Deep production wells may also be required.
Potential Job Creation
Not stated.
Capital Expenditure
None stated.
Planned Start/End Date
The proposed activities are planned to start in the first quarter of 2021, which will include the Lambert Deep well, the three GWF-3 wells and related subsea installation.
Drilling of the four production wells is expected to take about 70 days per well to complete. Installation of subsea infrastructure and precommissioning will start after the drilling and is expected to take about 100 days.
Topside modifications at the Angel platform are expected to be conducted over a 15-month period from the first quarter of 2021 to the second quarter of 2022.
Activities will be conducted 24/7, with the timing and duration of these activities subject to change because of project schedule requirements, mobile offshore drilling units and vessel availability, weather and unforeseen circumstances.
