    OSLO, Norway – BW Energy is optimizing production from the final two wells of the Tortue Phase 2 field development offshore Gabon, according to partner Panoro Energy.

    Wells DTM-6H and DTM-7H came onstream last month; however, a shortage of gas-lift capacity is currently impacting performance of all the wells.

    The Hibiscus/Ruche Phase 1 development, on the same Dussafu Marin permit, is progressing on schedule for first oil anticipated in 4Q 2022, Panoro added.
