Successful start for FPSO Libra

Teekay's FPSO Pioneiro de Libra completed its first year of operation. 

Framo has provided fire water pumps and seawater lift pumps produced at Flatøy to FPSO Libra. Since achieving the first oil in November 2017, the FPSO has produced more than nine million barrels of oil, reports Teekay.

The FPSO is the first unit to produce oil on the giant Libra field, which covers more than 1.500 square kilometers in the Santos Basin. All of this was achieved with zero lost time incidents and a high standard of safety and environmental performance. The vessel has a storage capacity of 650.000 bbls.

Since achieving first oil last November, the vessel has produced an average of more than 58 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed).
