bp Trinidad and Tobago (bpTT) announced today that it has safely completed the Cypre seven-well drilling programme following delivery of first gas in April 2025.
The Cypre development is made up of seven wells tied back into bpTT’s existing Juniper platform. Four wells were drilled and completed at the end of 2024 with the first gas delivered in April this year.
The project team has now drilled, completed and commissioned the remaining three wells. At peak, Cypre is projected to deliver approximately 45,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (approximately 250 million standard cubic feet of gas a day). Cypre is bpTT’s third subsea development.
David Campbell, bpTT president, said: “Completion of these wells and the gas delivered mark a safe and successful delivery for bp and Trinidad and Tobago. This achievement underscores our commitment to maximizing production from the Columbus Basin and reflects a significant investment and bpTT’s continued dedication to the country’s energy sector.
“This is the latest achievement in a year of strong delivery for bpTT, including the bp-operated Frangipani gas discovery and working with our joint venture partner, EOG, to deliver first gas from the Mento major project. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with the Government and other stakeholders to unlock Trinidad and Tobago's energy future.”
