In early 2003, Esso started the construction of the $3bn Kizomba B project, which is also expected to recover approximately one billion barrels of oil, also at a target production rate of 250,000bpd. The first oil for Kizomba B was reached in July 2005.
Kizomba B saw the development of the Kissanje and Dikanza discoveries in water depths of 3,300 ft to 3,400 ft.
The project includes a combination of a surface wellhead platform and subsea wells tied back to an FPSO vessel. The design for Kizomba B duplicates Kizomba A, reducing costs and cycle time.
ExxonMobil earmarked $750 m for the FPSO unit, which has a storage capacity of 2.2 million barrels of oil.
The unit measures 85 m x 63 m and stands 32 m-tall with a weight of 81,000 t and accommodation for 100 personnel.
Kizomba B had 22 production wells by the end of 2008.
