South Coast Gas Development

South Coast Gas Development in the Western Cape. The Project will include the subsea tie-back of gas from the Sable field and six additional gas accumulations to the existing production facilities on the F-A platform for transportation through an existing pipeline to the GTL plant. Production is expected to increase to an average of about 100-million cubic feet per day of gas and 3 000 barrels per day of condensate over the initial phase of the project through to 2012. The partners will also use the project's drillrig to explore for additional gas reserves in the area, which may then extend the life of the project to 2017. Estimated project value: R2.6 billion.
