SEA EAGLE TERMINAL
Sea Eagle Terminal (4°48'N., 5°19'E.), consisting of a Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) facility and an SPM, is situated within the EA Oil Field Development Area. The FPSO (Sea Eagle) is secured to a fixed bow-intergrated Soft Yoke Mooring Platform (SYMP) and is moored in a depth of 26.5m.
The terminal can handle vessels up to 300,000 dwt and 58m beam. Due to the existence of submerged structures and pipelines, vessels are limited to a maximum draft of 17.8m. Berthing is allowed during daylight hours only. Vessels berth in tandem with the FPSO.
Vessels waiting to berth should anchor, in depths of 40 to 70m, NW of the terminal and well clear of the area. Pilotage is compulsory. Vessels must proceed to Forcados Oil Terminal in order to embark the pilot.
The Sea Eagle Terminal FPSO may be contacted by e-mail, as follows: seaeaglemss@shell.com
Vessels should send their ETA to the Shell Marine Office, Forcados and the terminal 72 hours, 48 hours, and 24 hours in advance. Vessels should then contact the pilot station at Forcados Oil Terminal on VHF channel 8 when within range and Sea Eagle Terminal on VHF channel 10 when 25 miles from the Development Area.
