Baobab Marine Terminal (CIBAO)

The FPSO is currently closed for commercial operations. Information for the FPSO is retained should the port reopen. Operating in 970m of water depth, and all waters surrounding it within a 2nm radius, the Terminal consists of a 357,000DWT FPSO 'Baobab Ivoirien MV10', including its bow moorings, hoses, pipeline end manifold and pipeline from the production manifolds. The FPSO has a capacity for handling approximately 75,000bbls of oil a day, 75,000,000mі of natural gas (being transported to shore via the Espoir Field infrastructure - Block Cl-26) and 100,000bbls per day of water injection.

Tropical.

Baobab Marine Terminal is located 13.5nm offshore from Cote d'Ivoire, in block CI-4, approximately 43nm SW of Abidjan.

Offshore: LOA 402.65m, DWT 344,289.

A deepwater anchorage for Shuttle Tankers waiting for a loading berth within the area bounded by a 1nm radius circle centered in position 05°04.0'N 004° 23.4'W.

BA 3100, 3101, 595. Admiralty Pilot NP1, NP286(8).

1025.

Tandem Mooring Hose: The tandem mooring floating hose string is 363m, consisting of 20in diameter section ending with a 16in diameter hose fitted with butterfly valve, Camlock coupling, single pick-up chain and hang-off chain at the tanker rail hose.

Vessels are normally boarded approx 2nm off the terminal by the Baobab Marine Terminal Mooring Master, or other positions agreed by the mooring master. Available 24 hours.

A Multi-Functional Support Vessel (MFSV) of 80t bollard pull, will assist for the mooring, offloading and unmooring operations. It will be secured to the stern of the shuttle tanker approx 1.5nm from the FPSO. A mini tug of 490hp will also assist with cargo and hose operations.

Heavy rains fall during May-Jul and shorter rains during Aug-Sep.
