TotalEnergies has announced the start of production from the Fenix gas field, located 60 km off the coast of Tierra del Fuego in Southern Argentina.
The Fenix field is part of the Cuenca Marina Austral 1 (CMA-1) concession, in which TotalEnergies holds a 37.5% operated interest, alongside its partners Harbour Energy (37.5%) and Pan American Energy (25%).
With a production capacity of 10 million m³, the Fenix development consists of a new unmanned platform, located in 70 m water depth and connected to the existing CMA-1 facilities.
Javier Rielo, senior vice president Americas, exploration & production at TotalEnergies says: ‘The start-up of Fenix production safely and ahead of schedule, only two years after final investment decision, demonstrates the capacity of our company to deliver its projects. Fenix will contribute to maintaining our gas production plateau in Tierra del Fuego and ensure a reliable supply to the Argentinean gas market.’
