Block 20 contains the Cameia and Golfinho oil discoveries, located around 150 kilometres (km) southwest of Luanda. These discoveries are planned to be developed through a system of subsea wells connected to a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) unit with an oil production capacity of 70,000 barrels per day – the seventh FPSO developed by TotalEnergies in Angola. Total said the project will include the best available technologies to minimise greenhouse gas emissions and the facilities will be designed for zero flaring, with the associated gas entirely reinjected into the reservoirs.
