The firm disclosed Tuesday it had transported ashore its first gas volumes from its latest development in the Greater Cassia area more than a year after commissioning began. BP estimates the Cassia C discovery to have a peak production of around 200-300 MMcf/d.

Cassia C is both BP’s first offshore compression platform used in its Trinidad and Tobago acreage and its largest facility in the area. The platform is connected to the existing Cassia hub around 35 miles off Trinidad’s southeast coast.
