OMV Petrom will develop Domino and Pelican South gas fields in Neptun Deep offshore block in the Black Sea about 160 km from shore in water depths between 100 m and 1,000 m.
Development includes 10 wells, 3 subsea production systems and associated flow lines, an offshore platform, the main natural gas pipeline to Tuzla, and a natural gas measurement station. The platform generates its own energy, and the entire infrastructure will be operated remotely through a digital twin, OMV said.
OMV Petrom and partner Romgaz will jointly invest up to EUR 4 billion for the development phase, set to bring on stream around 100 billion cu m (bcm) of natural gas. First production is estimated for 2027 and production at the plateau will be about 140,000 boe/d for almost 10 years. Estimated recoverable volumes are about 100 bcm (700 MMboe).
OMV Petrom is operator of Neptun Deep (50%) with SNGN Romgaz SA holding the remaining 50%.
