TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) announces that
Libra Consortium has taken the final investment decision to develop
an innovative natural gas and CO2 separation and reinjection
facility for the Mero field in the Brazilian deep offshore
pre-salt.
This pilot unit, using a pioneer high pressure subsea separation
technology (HISEP(R)), will separate oil from CO2-rich gas at the
bottom of the ocean and reinject the gas directly into the
reservoir. This technology has the potential to reduce the amount
of gas sent to the topside FPSO, thus enabling to reduce the GHG
emissions intensity while increasing the field production
capacity.
This innovation is part of the Libra Consortium's research and
development programs. The HISEP(R) subsea separation pilot unit
will be connected to the Marechal Duque de Caxias FPSO (Mero 3
project), which is currently under construction.
"TotalEnergies is proud to participate to the development of
this new technology in the Mero field. In addition to its benefits
in Brazil, it should find applications for other projects within
the Company. Such innovation fits with TotalEnergies' approach to
develop its businesses while reducing its emissions and costs, to
improve its competitiveness in a sustainable way", said Namita
Shah, President, OneTech at TotalEnergies.
Mero is a unitized field, operated by Petrobras (38.6%), in
partnership with TotalEnergies (19.3%), Shell Brasil (19.3%), CNPC
(9.65%), CNOOC (9.65%) and Pré-Sal Petróleo S.A (PPSA) (3.5%).
