Perenco has installed the new Kombi 2 platform offshore Congo-Brazzaville, representing a significant $200 million investment in the redevelopment of the legacy Kombi-Likalala-Libondo (KLL) oil and gas asset. This facility is central to the second phase of the KLL revival plan, initiated over two decades after the last well was drilled in the shallow water complex.

Production and Operational Goals

The platform is designed to produce 7 million cubic feet of gas per day and is expected to recover approximately 20 million barrels of reserves through new drilling. A six-well drilling campaign is scheduled to commence from the platform in 2026, with objectives to increase overall production, optimize the field's recovery factor, and extend its operational life. Platform commissioning is currently planned for early March 2026.

Additional Infrastructure and Environmental Aims

Beyond hydrocarbon production, the Kombi 2 facility aims to enhance operational efficiency and environmental performance. Its capabilities include improving water and effluent treatment processes and generating 8 megawatts of electricity using two gas turbines.
