Contents Objectives Background Typical Arrangements for FPU / Riser Free Standing Hybrid Risers key aspects Proposed Alternative(s) MODU as FPU: Drilling & Completion, Production & Installation Historical Precedence & Current Scenario Comparison: Converted MODU vs. TLP Installation Method Conclusions & Closing Remarks 2
Objectives Describe how the conversion of Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU) into a Floating Production Unit (FPU), keeping drilling and adding installation capabilities, can be a complete and cost effective solution when considered in association with a Free Standing Hybrid Riser (FSHR). Present how previous industry experience and current market conditions turns it into an timelly opportunity. 3
Background 4
Background Typ. Arrangements for Floating Production Unit and Risers (and 2H areas of expertise) Risers & Well Conductors Engineering Drilling Risers Top Tensioned Risers Rigid & Flexible Risers Hybrid Risers 5
Background Free Standing Hybrid Risers (FSHR) key aspects Buoyancy Tank Not highly sensitive to environmental loading or FPU motions Low payload on platform and moorings Large diameters; any water depth Pre-Installable decouples installation from FPU and flowlines schedule Flow assurance flexibility Large insulation thicknesses Pipe-in-Pipe CRA lined pipe Opportunities for Local Content (Africa, Brazil) Unique seabed contact point Lower installation cost by installing from the MODU $60MM to $25MM per installed riser To FPU Flexible Jumper Base Jumper Tether Upper Riser Assembly (URA) Standard Riser Joints Lower Riser Assembly (LRA) Foundation 6
Proposed Alternative MODU as MOPU 7
Proposed Alternative Options Option A: MODU re-purposed as FPU only Minimal or full processing facility Fluid processed at MODU before export Future drilling & intervention by a different MODU Option B: MODU repurposed as FPU + drilling & workover + FSHR installation Drill initial or future wells Install production risers - avoid costly heavy lift installation vessel Production fluids offloaded to FPSO Workover & intervene - maximize reservoir recoverability Permanent installation over field life new requirements 8
Proposed Alternative Drilling & Completion, Production & Installation - OVERVIEW FPSO Mooring Transfer System (s) (mid water or FSHR-flowline-Riser) Converted Semi-Sub: Drilling Production Installation Mooring Free Standing Hybrid Riser(s) (FSHR) Flex Jumper Drilling Riser Subsea Tree Flowline Manifold Subsea Umbilical 9
Proposed Alternative Field Layout Arrangement Rationale Constraints Accommodated: Subsea Tree - MOPU motions do not allow for dry tree Top Tensioned Risers FSHR minimizes riser load even in deepwater Production transfer to FPSO - minimizes additional payload and deck space and allows the drilling rig to be maintained Subsea trees located under drilling vessel to enable through life drilling/workover access Offloads to leased FPSO providing overall low CAPEX solution Improved and alternate from TLP-FPSO Solution (W Africa, SE Asia and Brazil) 10
Proposed Alternative Applications & Additional Benefits Particular value for: Fields that would otherwise need a substantial production and drilling host (PDQ) Marginal fields Early production / extended well test. But valuable for any (applicable) field: Long lead-time and expensive TLP/FPU can be avoided. Heavy construction vessel can be avoided 11

Historical Precedence - Case Example Liuhua Field Development Production and Drilling Background: 300m water depth, South China Sea Marginal field, low recovery, high water cut Extend well tests Adjustable drilling & intervention requirements Solution: Converted MODU: production and drilling capability Converted FPSO On seabed transfer from manifold to FPSO Solution made development economically viable Ref: Hall, Sheng, Krenek, Douglas, Macfarlane, Liuhua 11-1 Development Subsea Production System Overview, OTC 1996, Paper 8175 15

Converted MODU vs. TLP/TLWP 17
Converted MODU vs. TLP/TLWP Key MODU Advantages over TLP or Spar CAPEX Schedule RISKEX - saving of up to 50% vs. TLWP/Spar - first oil anticipated by one year or more - lower installation risk compared with TLP and Spar installations Maintain life of field workover capability for maximum reservoir recoverability Manage reservoir uncertainty Maximum end of life well count is not a driver for drilling vessel selection - flexibility Can also be an early production system Subsea architecture is organically expandable using the drilling vessel and a support vessel (MSV) to install more trees, risers, flowlines and jumpers Vessel and riser system can be readily retrieved and relocated 18
