BP Trinidad and Tobago (bpTT) has announced the successful completion of its Cypre gas field development, marking a significant milestone in the region’s energy sector. The project, which involved drilling seven wells tied back to the existing Juniper platform, achieved first gas delivery in April 2025. The final three wells were drilled, completed, and commissioned recently, bringing the entire development to fruition. At its peak, Cypre is expected to produce approximately 45,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, equivalent to 250 million standard cubic feet of gas daily. This makes Cypre bpTT’s third subsea development. David Campbell, bpTT president, emphasized the project’s success as a testament to the company’s commitment to maximizing production from the Columbus Basin and its ongoing investment in Trinidad and Tobago’s energy sector. The Cypre gas field, located 78 kilometers off the southeast coast of Trinidad in the East Mayaro Block, is entirely owned by bpTT, a joint venture between bp (70%) and Repsol (30%). Former Energy Minister Stuart Young lauded the project’s completion, highlighting its importance in offsetting the natural gas decline in the region. The development, negotiated between 2017 and 2023, underscores bpTT’s dedication to unlocking Trinidad and Tobago’s energy future.
