Angola: Total sanctions Zinia 2 project

Total on 28 May announced a final investment decision to launch the 40,000 b/d Zinia 2 deep offshore development in Block 17, 150km offshore. Production from Zinia 2 will help maintain output from the Pazflor development, which started up in 2011. Total said Zinia 2 was the first of several possible short-cycle developments on Block 17 that would unlock its full potential by connecting satellite reservoirs to the block’s four existing floating storage, production and offloading (FPSO) vessels.
