Dallas, TX: ReportsandReports announce it will carry   Bonga Field, Nigeria, Commercial Asset Valuation and Forecast to 2025  Market Research Report in its Store.


The Bonga field is an offshore field located in the Oil Prospecting License (OPL) 212 and Oil Mining License (OML) 118 in the deepwater of Gulf of Guinea in Nigeria. It is located 120km southwest of Niger Delta. The water depth in the field is more than 1,000m. The field covers an area of around 60 sq km. SNEPCO (Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company Ltd.) is the operator of the field. The field was discovered in 1995 by SNEPCO.
SNEPCO (a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell PLC) is the major equity holder in the Bonga field with 55%. The other partners include Esso, Nigerian Agip Exploration Ltd. and Elf Petroleum Nigeria Limited. These partners have JOA (Joint Operating Agreement) with SNEPCO.
The Bonga field also comprises multiple reserves located around the main field in the same block. These reserves include Bonga Southwest and Bonga Northwest satellite fields. However, these fields are not considered during the asset valuation of the Bonga field.
The field produces crude oil and associated natural gas from its Late Miocene shale formations in the block via a Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel anchored at the location. The API gravity of the crude oil is 29º API with 0.25% sulfur (by weight).
The Bonga field started production in 2005. The field produced around 82.13 million barrels (Mmbbls) of crude oil and 54.75 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of associated natural gas during 2009, which is also its peak year.
The life of the Bonga field was estimated to be around 21 years with complete abandonment during 2025. The unit is expected to generate $51.99 billion in revenues (undiscounted) during its remaining life (starting January 1, 2010) and is expected to yield an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of around 32.5%.

Scope
