In Gabon, Drilling Campaign Is Close to Start for MaBoMo Phase 2 Development

Drilling is scheduled to commence mid-year (July) 2026 for the MaBoMo Phase 2 Development in the Dussfu license offshore Gabon

The programme includes four initial production wells drilled from the existing BW MaBoMo mobile production unit, with two additional appraisal wells currently under evaluation.

First oil has been scheduled for late 2026 into the first quarter of 2027, to offset natural declines and expand production, according to BW Energy, the Norwegian operator of the asset.

The new wells are expected to return gross production at the Dussafu license to nameplate capacity of approximately 40,000 barrels of oil per day (BOPD).

The extracted crude will be processed at the nearby FPSO BW Adolo, utilizing an existing 20 kilometre subsea pipeline already in place.

BW Energy says it is progressing with the nearby Bourdon prospect towards a Final Investment Decision (FID) utilizing the MaBoMo blueprint as a development cluster.

“The Gabonese Ministry of Petroleum and Gas also approved a 20year extension of the Dussafu Marin production license to 2048 to support these ongoing activities”, BW Energy says
