Chevron Sanctions Groundbreaking Anchor Project in US Gulf

摘要

US supermajor Chevron has sanctioned its $5.7 billion Anchor project in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, positioning it to become the industry's first oil and gas development to produce from reservoirs with extremely high pressures and temperatures. Anchor will leverage trailblazing - and unproven - technology that is capable of handling reservoir pressures exceeding 20,000 pounds per square inch (20k), marking a major milestone for offshore field development.
