MODU – mobile offshore drilling unit (either of jack-up drill rig or semi-submersible rig or drill ship) MOF – marine offloading facility; MOPO – matrix of permitted operations; MOPU – mobile offshore production unit (to describe jack-up production rig, or semi-submersible production rig, or floating production, or storage ship)
The list is incomplete; there are more than 25,000 oil and gas fields of all sizes in the world. [1] However, 94% of known oil is concentrated in fewer than 1,500 giant and major fields. [ 2 ] Most of the world's largest oilfields are located in the Middle East , but there are also supergiant (>10 billion bbls ) oilfields in Brazil, Mexico ...
The wells were considered to be dry holes, however, oil shows were found in all the wells and live oil was tested in the State Lease 826Y-1.
