Fossil Energy – Subsea Tieback
Shell announced the start of production at Dover, the second subsea tieback connecting new wells to the existing infrastructure of the Shell-operated Appomattox production hub in the Gulf of Mexico.
Dover brings an estimated peak production of 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
“Shell continues to unlock more value from the prolific basins in our portfolio,” said Colette Hirstius, Executive Vice President, Gulf of Mexico. “Dover is another example of how we maximize the production of our deep-water hubs as we deliver on our strategy to create more value with less emissions. The high-margin, lower-carbon barrels from the Gulf of Mexico are essential to our energy system, both now and in the future.”
