BpTT report: Cypre project entering next phase

bpTT, a subsidiary of BP, has made significant strides in its gas development projects in Trinidad, marking a new chapter in the country’s energy sector. Recently, bpTT President David Campbell and Executive Vice President of Gas and Low Carbon Energy William Lin met with Trinidad and Tobago’s Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar to discuss the progress of two major initiatives: the Cypre gas field and the upcoming Ginger project. The Cypre field, operational since March 2025, is bpTT’s third subsea development, featuring seven wells connected to the Juniper platform via flexible flowlines. Located 78 kilometers off Trinidad’s southeast coast, the field has successfully completed its startup phase, with phase two’s subsea equipment now ready for deployment. The Seven Arctic subsea construction vessel, arriving from Norway, will commence offshore operations in late 2025, further advancing the project’s innovative and reliable framework. Meanwhile, the Ginger project, expected to produce first gas by 2027, will include four subsea wells linked to the Mahogany B platform. At peak production, the field is projected to yield 62,000 barrels of oil per day. Campbell and Lin also toured bpTT’s Galeota and Beachfield facilities, which process offshore gas and liquids for midstream and downstream supply. Campbell emphasized the importance of strong government partnerships, having met with key ministers to discuss unlocking value for Trinidad’s energy industry. ‘Building strong country relationships is foundational to delivering our strategy,’ Campbell stated, underscoring bpTT’s commitment to collaborative progress.
