Chevron's Tahiti goes to record GoM production depths

摘要

When the Chevron-operated Tahiti development began production in 2Q 2009 as the deepest field in the Gulf of Mexico, it secured a place on Offshore's Top 5 projects list. The fact that the $2.7-billion first phase of the project consists of six subsea wells in two drill centers, including the deepest producing well in the GoM at more than 26,700 ft (8,138 m) connected to a spar floating production system, cemented the recognition.
