Angola's FPSO Fleet — Complete Guide

Angola's FPSO Fleet

Angola operates one of the largest FPSO fleets in Africa, reflecting the country's deepwater-dominated production profile. TotalEnergies alone operates six FPSOs in Angola, with the FPSO Kaminho set to become the seventh when it begins operations in 2028. Other operators including Eni/Azule Energy, BP, and Chevron also deploy floating production systems across Angola's offshore blocks.
