First Lady inaugurates Ghana’s second FPSO vessel

Ghana is set to deliver its first oil from the Tweneboa, Enyenra and Ntomme (TEN) Fields by August 2016.

This follows the formal inauguration by the First Lady Lordina Mahama of the country’s second Floating Production, Storage and Off-loading Vessel-FPSO named after late Professor John Evans Atta Mills. 

The inauguration of the vessel has paved the way for the over 1.5 billion dollar vessel to leave the Jurong Shipyards in Singapore by the close of December, 2015 and enter Ghanaian territorial waters by February, 2016.

The drilling in the TEN Fields is expected to inject at least 20 billion dollars into the oil industry in the next five years.
