GabonMarathon holds a 56.25 percent interest in three offshore production fields in Gabon: Tchatamba Marin, Tchatamba South and Tchatamba West. Marathon is the operator of all three fields, which are in a common production-sharing contract. Production is processed on a single facility at Tchatamba Marin, with processed oil being transported through a pipeline to a nonoperated onshore facility. In 2004, Marathon extended its license in Gabon for 10 years, which now expires in 2018. Located 15 miles offshore and approximately 100 miles southeast of Port Gentil, the Tchatamba Marin Field was discovered in 1995 and began production in early 1998. The Tchatamba South and West fields were discovered in 1997 and came on stream in 1999 and 2000, respectively. A 27-mile pipeline (25 miles offshore, 2 miles onshore) ties-in to Total’s existing onshore Rabi-Kounga pipeline, which flows to the Cap Lopez offloading terminal just north of Port Gentil. |
