Petrobras reschedules startup of U.S. Gulf Cascade-Chinook project

摘要

Petrobras has delayed the start of oil production from its Cascade-Chinook deepwater oil development in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico to the end of this year. The development is located 165 miles offshore Louisiana, in a water depth of more than 8,000 ft. Production was rescheduled from the middle of the year due to the repair of a link that resulted in the collapse of the five freestanding hybrid risers connected to the Cascade-Chinook FPSO.
