Expro’s first major production system was in 1983 when we provided an Early Production Facility (EPF) to Thai Shell for their onshore Sirikit field. Based mainly on modified well testing components, the production system designed, supplied, installed, supervised and operated by Expro had two 10,000 bbl/day separation trains with indirect fired heaters, storage tanks and tanker loading gantries foroil export. Expro delivered the facilities, which included a camp for the field crew, achieving first oil within 10 months of contract award.
Our first offshore production facility was in 1988 when we provided an Extended Well
Test (EWT) facility for Occidental’s Birch Field in the UKCS. This utilised modified well testing equipment to enable export of stabilized crude oil to a shuttle tanker moored one kilometre away. The facilities produced at rates of up to12,500 bbl/day over a nine-month evaluation period.
Furthermore, strong strategic acquisitions have added to Expro’s global capabilities and track record. We can now reference projects going back as far as the EWT carried out on Chevron’s Casablanca Field, offshore Spain, from 1976 to 1978. More recent projects include the Interim Production Facility for Exxon Neftegas’ Chayvo project, designed to export 50,000 bbl/day of oil and 150 MMscfd of gas; the swamp barge mounted facility to receive 50,000 bbl/day of oil and 55 MMscfd of gas at Chevron Nigeria’s Dibi Field; Salamander Energy’s Kambuna gas EPF, Sumatra, Indonesia, at 4,000 bbl/day condensate and 40 MMscfd; and the MOPU/EPFs on NuCoastal Songkhla Field, Thailand, at 30,000 BOPD and 20,000 BOPD.
Over the last 30 years, operating in some of the world’s most remote and hazardous environments, our facilities have delivered over 200 million bbls of oil for our customers worldwide.
