Field and context
The Petronius Field lies in the Viosca Knoll area of the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Reservoirs are Miocene-age deepwater turbidite sandstones. The field is moderate to large in scale and was developed using a compliant tower structure to operate in deepwater conditions while supporting dry-tree wells.
