TotalEnergies Advances Offshore Strategy with Begonia and CLOV Phase 3

TotalEnergies announces the start of production from the BEGONIA and CLOV Phase 3 offshore projects, leveraging ullage in the PAZFLOR and CLOV floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSO) to add a total of 60,000 barrels a day of new production.

These two subsea tie-back projects deliver additional production leveraging available capacity on existing FPSO’s and as such have low marginal costs and low carbon intensities.

BEGONIA, the first development on Block 17/06
TotalEnergies (30%, operator) announces the start of production from BEGONIA, the first inter-block development in Angola. A project made possible thanks to good cooperation between the Angolan concession holder Agencia Nacional de Petróleo, Gás e Biocombustíveis (ANPG), the partners of the block 17/06, Sonangol E&P (30%), SSI (27,5%), ETU Energias (7.5%), Falcon Oil (5%), and the partners of block 17 also operated by TotalEnergies.

Located 150 kilometers off the Angolan coast, BEGONIA is a 30,000 barrels per day project consisting of five wells subsea tied back to the PAZFLOR FPSO.

CLOV Phase 3, continued upsides on Block 17
TotalEnergies (38%, operator) also announces the first oil from CLOV Phase 3 in Block 17, in agreement with ANPG and its partners Equinor (22,16%), ExxonMobil (19%), Azule Energy (15.84%) and Sonangol E&P (5%).

Located 140 kilometers from the Angolan coast, CLOV Phase 3 is a 30,000 barrels per day project consisting of four wells subsea tie-back to the CLOV FPSO.

“TotalEnergies, operator of Block 17 and 17/06, continues to actively deliver its low-cost and low-emissions developments to grow its upstream production by more than 3% in 2025,” stated Nicolas Terraz, President Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies. “With BEGONIA and CLOV Phase 3, we are leveraging available production capacity in existing FPSOs of Block 17 (PAZFLOR and CLOV) while reducing costs and emissions.”
