The A$1.6 billion development involved the installation of a new platform and associated infrastructure, including a 50km subsea pipeline tied back to the existing North Rankin A platform.
Located approximately 120km northwest of Karratha, the Angel platform stands in about 80m of water and is supplied by three subsea production wells.
With a production capacity of 800 million standard cubic feet of raw gas and up to 50,000 barrels of condensate a day, hydrocarbons from the Angel platform will be processed through the North West Shelf Venture’s integrated system, which now includes the Train-5 liquefied natural gas production (LNG) facility at the Karratha gas plant.
