• Where possible equipment was leak tested, commissioned and

Gas export line – commissioned
systems accepted by operations in Singapore prior to sail away prior to start up
• The voyage and movement of the vessel and equipment
requires them to be re-tested ahead of the introduction of
hydrocarbons
• Vessel activities:
– Pipework: Nitrogen/helium testing; and Deluge testing
– Tubing: Leak testing
– Electrical & Instrumentation: Pig tail termination & tests;
and Removed equipment reinstated and tested
• Subsea activities
– Completion of umbilical core flushing
– Gas export riser dewatering
– Tree & manifold valve function testing
• Final activities
– Testing of offloading hose connection
– Final rotation test
• Ready for the introduction of hydrocarbons from Catcher field Teekay shuttle tanker

Catcher Varadero Burgman

• Catcher is the initial field on production due to it’s ability to produce oil in a stable fashion for the first stages
of the FPSO plant commissioning
• Each field will be brought on in the following manner
– Well clean up (initial clean up restricted by rig surface equipment)
– Well test through the subsea multi-phase meters
– Restricted rate to manage gas rates through commissioning period
• Following gas train commissioning completion and the introduction of Burgman fluids the plant will be run at
60 kbopd
