The Whiptail Development Project is an offshore project located in the Stabroek Block, approximately 200 km off the coast of Guyana. The project involves the development of oil resources through up to 10 drill centers, 48 production and injection wells, subsea infrastructure and the new FPSO Jaguar. With an expected production capacity of approximately 250,000 barrels of oil per day, Whiptail aims to increase Guyana’s offshore oil production.

Situated in the Thi Qar province, approximately 5km northwest of Al-Refaei city and 85km north of Nasiriya, the Garraf oil field has an onshore location. Discovered in 1984, this oil field contains oil reserves within Cretaceous reservoirs. Spanning 17.5km in length and 5.5km in width, it is estimated to harbor 1.3 billion barrels of oil. Upon reaching full production, the field’s production capacity is projected to escalate to 230,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Transportation of the oil field’s products is facilitated through a 13km pipeline to the Gharraf-Badra tie-in area (GBTA). Subsequently, it is conveyed via a 28-inch, 92km pipeline to the Nassiriyah storage depot.
