“In Mauritania and Senegal, the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) LNG project continued to perform strongly with nine LNG cargoes lifted in the second quarter, at the upper end of guidance,” Kosmos said in its first-half operational and financial update on Monday.
Kosmos also said that a condensate cargo was lifted during the second quarter.
The Dallas-based firm did not provide further details.
In May, Kosmos said that the FLNG GTA Phase 1 production averaged approximately 17,000 boepd net during the first quarter, or 2.85 mtpa of LNG equivalent gross as the project continued to produce above the floating LNG vessel’s nameplate capacity, benefiting from cooler seasonal temperatures.
The partnership lifted 9.5 gross LNG cargoes in the first quarter.
Komos said in the first-quarter report that full-year guidance of 32-36 gross LNG cargoes remained unchanged.
BP operates GTA with a 56 percent working interest alongside Kosmo (27 percent), Petrosen (10 percent), and SMH (7 percent).
The partners previously signed a sales and purchase agreement under which BP Gas Marketing will offtake 2.45 million tonnes per annum of LNG from the first phase of the GTA project for an initial term of up to 20 years.
The FLNG, owned by Golar LNG and chartered by BP, started producing LNG in February last year and shipped the first cargo in April.
Golar’s FLNG vessel achieved commercial operations date (COD) in June last year.
