World Records in Water Depth and Tie-Back Distance - The BP King Project

The King field is located 29 kilometers from the Marlin TLP / Gulf of Mexico in water depths ranging from 1500 to 1700 m. This is currently the deepest water depth and longest step-out for subsea multiphase pumping. This technology is foreseen as a fit for projects involving boosting of low pressure wellstream from subsea tiebacks, tail-end-production for increased oil recovery and greenfield developments.
