Description:
- Phase I consists of modifying the Molikpaq to a drilling,
production and quarters facility. The oil produced will
be transferred to a moored floating, storage and offloading
tanker (FSO) for offloading to buyer tankers. The gas produced
in association with the oil will be injected into the reservoir.
The use of an FSO will restrict the oil production period
to the ice free season, currently believed to be 180 - 200
days per year.
