BALEINE - COTE D'IVOIRE latest Oilfield

[@helgekreutz7089]

Mike, excellent summary. I wouldn't be surprised if one day you will be named an (honorary) geophysicist. But can you please explain how they turn the good old Firenze into a net-zero emission development? How many forests will they buy as compensation?? Would love to see some more details about what exactly was done to her during the yard visit and even more, what was discovered that needed repair. May be an idea for Trove to give more information? But I know that this is hard to come by, unless you study several announcements of individual suppliers that are involved in the job.

Helge, good to see you posting on our channel again. I hope you are well. You recognise the questions you ask are unlikely to currently have answers in the public domain - either due to commercial sensitivity or limited detail provided. Should any viewers wish to send us information on the issues Helege is talking about, we could cover it in a future video. We will be returning to this field once the development has progressed. We too are very interested to know how the project is net-zero. I hope (and expect) ENI will outline the justification for the claim. I am not sure if the project involves emissions offsets thru forestry-type projects.

Did you cover the Baleen Gas Field offshore Gippsland ? Not as big admittedly but interesting in its own way.

Hi Colin, We do indeed have data on the Baleen Patricia fields. It's not obvious from what I see in the public domain why this small gas tieback would have wider appeal. However, I know you have a great depth of knowledge of Australian O&G assets. Perhaps we can have a chat why you think Baleen would be a good asset for a TROVE video. ATB, Mike

@@TROVE-1stSubsurface only that it shares the name (different spelling - same meaning). There is nothing new under the sun.

@@colinhiggins6237 I think there are many new things worthy of covering. Some interesting videos in editing with lots of activity to report on globally.
