Project Description
AIDEA initially provided $20 million of financing for the development of the Mustang Road and Pad (MRLLC) was followed by an additional $50 million directed towards construction of the Mustang Operations Center 1 (MOC1).
If fully developed as originally planned, the SMU will include:
- An oil and gas production facility capable of processing up to 15,000 barrels per day (bpd) of oil
- Gas treatment for up to 7.5 million standard cubic feet per day (mmscf/d) of solution gas for reinjection (reservoir pressure support) and facility fuel needs
- Well headers and connections for up to nine horizontal producers and nine injection wells
Support
This project was initially supported by the State of Alaska Department of Natural Resources when the Southern Miluveach Unit was approved in 2011 and the North Slope Borough in 2012 via Resolution Serial No. 40-2012 regarding AIDEA's initial investment in the Mustang Development Project. MHLLC, as the current operator of the SMU, continues to work closely with the State's regulatory agencies.
