We carried out a screening study for a small potential offshore development in China local to Hong Kong. The field contained a light volatile oil with a density of 44 – 46 °API and reserves of up to 30 million barrels. A key element of the study was to assess a number of fixed platform and floating production solutions the field to determine the economic optimum. The development and operating cost estimates were generated using our NETCO$TER Cost Evaluation Software.
