  • Offshore Terminal in Indonesia

Address: Indonesia

The ANOA NATUNA Offshore Terminal is an offshore facility associated with the oil and gas industry in Indonesia, particularly within the Natuna Sea, which is a rich hydrocarbon basin located in the South China Sea. This terminal primarily services various oil and gas operations in the region and is part of Indonesia's extensive network of offshore infrastructure.

Description

  1. Location: The ANOA NATUNA Offshore Terminal is located in the Natuna Sea, which lies to the northeast of Indonesia. This region is known for its significant hydrocarbon reserves.

  2. Function: It serves as a hub for the extraction, processing, and transportation of natural gas and oil. The terminal is typically used for the gathering of hydrocarbons from nearby offshore fields, processing them to an extent and then exporting them to onshore facilities or directly to markets.

  3. Infrastructure:

    • Platforms: It likely includes production platforms, which house the necessary equipment for drilling, extraction, and initial processing of hydrocarbons.
    • Subsea Systems: These might consist of pipelines and risers that transport oil and gas from wellheads on the seabed to the processing facilities on the platforms.
    • Storage: There could be Floating, Storage, and Offloading (FSO) units or Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels associated with this terminal for temporary storage of extracted hydrocarbons.
    • Transportation: Offtake arrangements, possibly through tankers or subsea pipelines, transfer the processed hydrocarbons to refineries or export terminals.
  4. Operator: The terminal may be operated by a consortium of international oil companies (IOCs) and Indonesia’s state-owned enterprise, Pertamina, often involved in such projects within Indonesia.

Specification

  1. Production Capacity:

    • This would depend on the specific fields being serviced. Typical offshore terminals can handle tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of barrels of oil per day (bopd) and substantial volumes of natural gas.
  2. Processing Facilities:

    • Gas Processing: Includes equipment for dehydration, gas sweetening (removal of H2S and CO2), and compression.
    • Oil Processing: Typically involves separation of oil, gas, and produced water, with subsequent treatment of oil for export.
  3. Export Infrastructure:

    • Pipelines: Subsea pipelines to shore-based facilities or other offshore facilities.
    • FSO/FPSO: These vessels are equipped to handle the storage and offloading of oil to tankers.
    • Mooring Facilities: Single-point moorings or other offloading systems for tanker operations.
  4. Logistics and Support:

    • Helipads: For transportation of personnel.
    • Supply Vessels: For transport of equipment and supplies.
    • Emergency Systems: Incorporate safety and environmental protection features such as fire-fighting systems, emergency shutdown systems, and oil spill response equipment.
  5. Environmental and Safety Standards:

    • Compliance with Indonesian regulatory standards and international guidelines, including those from the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other relevant bodies, for environmental protection and worker safety.

The ANOA NATUNA Offshore Terminal plays a crucial role in Indonesia's energy sector, contributing significantly to the country's oil and gas output, ensuring energy security, and supporting the local and national economy. The specific details and capabilities of the terminal can vary depending on the project's development phase and technological upgrades over time.
