Case History: Kizomba
Subsea Production Expansion
Kizomba is a deepwater oil development between 150 to 400 km offshore of Angola.
It consists of three sites with a combined estimate of 2.6 billion barrels of oil.
It consists of three sites with a combined estimate of 2.6 billion barrels of oil.
• Kizomba A: including the Hungo and Chocalho fields in up to 4,200 ft (1,280 m)
of water; production began in 2004
• Kizomba B: including the Kissanje and Dikanza fields in up to 3,400 ft (1,036 m)
of water; production began in 2005
• Kizomba C: including the Mondo, Saxi and Batuque fields in up to 2,400 ft (732 m)
of water; production began in 2008
The Kizomba Satellites project began in 2008 with Phase 1 developing Mavacola and
Clochas assets tied back to Kizomba A and B FPSOs through a looped flowline system.
Phase 2 will develop the Mondo South, Bavuca, Kakocha, Saxi and Batuque assets, all
tied into existing subsea infrastructure at Kizomba A, B and C.

We supplied a range of topsides equipment as well as all core subsea production
equipment for 28 new wells in all. First production from Phase 1 came in July 2012.

Primary manufacturing and assembly were based at our Angola facility. The project
was completed with an industry-leading safety record.

Case History: Gorgon
Greenfield LNG Project
Gorgon contains about 40 trillion cubic feet of gas. It includes the world’s largest
carbon capture and sequestration project and will have an LNG output of 15 million
tons per year. It is the largest single-resource natural gas venture in Australian history
and one of the largest natural gas projects in the world. GE Oil & Gas has been involved
since the beginning, providing expertise and core technologies for both the onshore
and subsea components of this industry milestone effort.

and one of the largest natural gas projects in the world. GE Oil & Gas has been involved
since the beginning, providing expertise and core technologies for both the onshore
and subsea components of this industry milestone effort.
Our Subsea Systems team began designing subsea production, control and
transmission systems for Gorgon in 2008. Total project scope includes subsea
wellhead systems and trees with retrievable choke modules to control and manage
gas production and production monitoring and control systems so the complete
subsea infrastructure can be remotely controlled from Barrow Island. Our trees are built
specifically for Gorgon’s high flow rates – a 7-inch, full-bore design with twice the
capacity of a typical subsea tree.

The project is progressing well. By mid-2013, we completed 19 subsea trees, 16 of
which have been delivered to Australia. The final four trees are due to be shipped
from Aberdeen by the end of summer 2013. Our first two trees were safely installed in
early-2013 with no significant downtime despite a week-long delay caused by a passing
cyclone. They are now in 1,350 m (4,429 ft) of water at the Jansz-Io field about 190 km
from shore - it is one of the deepest subsea installations ever undertaken in Australia.

Pushing boundaries
GE Oil & Gas has been pushing the boundaries of offshore
development for over 100 years - pioneering subsea systems since
1962 and deepwater technologies since 1994. Our systems are
operating in every major production basin, delivering unmatched
production uptime and continually increasing efficiency, reliability
and availability in the most challenging fields around the world.

operating in every major production basin, delivering unmatched
production uptime and continually increasing efficiency, reliability
and availability in the most challenging fields around the world.
With developments continually moving into deeper water, we
have already amassed extensive operating experience in these
high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) applications, with unique
expertise in vertical tree systems – which are operating at nearly all
of our deepest water installations in Brazil and West Africa.

But our commitment doesn’t stop at the product level. We invest
significant resources worldwide to increase localized service
capabilities, knowledge transfer, training and employment. Recent
examples include our new $100 million facility in Jandakot,
Australia and our joint venture with GLS Holdings SA, which includes
a new $175 million manufacturing facility in Angola. Investments
like these create hundreds of direct jobs and countless indirect jobs
and sub-contracting opportunities in each region.

Subsea intelligence
As part of the global GE organization, we regularly take advantage
of leading technologies developed in other industries, and major
company-wide initiatives that help increase subsea equipment
capabilities in ways that other OEMs can’t. Across GE’s customer
base, for instance, our goal of improving asset performance
by just 1% can add $20 billion of annual customer profit. To do
this, we are championing evolution of the ‘Industrial Internet’ –
making major investments in software and analytical tools for
field management and optimization solutions that weren’t even
conceivable just a few years ago.

The first new product from this new focus is an underwater remote
monitoring system called Subsea Integrity Management designed
to increase production reliability for deepwater wells with data
from sensors measuring vibration, temperature and leak detection
for well heads, manifolds and production stations. All our latest
subsea trees, manifolds and connection systems are designed with
integrated smart communications and diagnostics technologies, all
supported around the clock with remote monitoring services that
are second to none.
