DEEP PANUKE UPDATE
Deep Panuke continues commissioning activities leading up to production acceptance and the start of the lease contract. These activities involve achieving a steady state of production and are taking the time required to safely start the gas platform.
SBM Offshore expects the activities to be completed in the coming weeks and will inform the market at that stage.
The Deep Panuke project produces and processes natural gas from the Deep Panuke field, approximately 250 kilometres (155 miles) southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia on the Scotian Shelf. The platform is designed to produce up to 300 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of natural gas.
The terms of the lease and operate contract are for a minimum period of eight years with annual extension provisions of up to a maximum of twelve additional years.
