 CHAD
North Africa
Chad began producing oil in 2003 through a 30 inch
pipeline linking newly developed fields to an offshore terminal and FSO
off Cameroon’s Atlantic coast.
Called the Chad Cameroon Development Project (CCDP), the
pipeline extends 1,070 km from Chad's Doba basin oil fields to the
offshore terminal at Kribi in Cameroon.
 Production commenced from three fields in the Doba basin
– Bolobo, Kome and Miandoun - which are believed to contain reserves of
over 1 Bn Bbls.
Full development of additional yet-to-find resources,
initially from the Nya and Miandouli fields, is
likely to be rapid now a pipeline has been built although production
declined in 2006.
Exploration along the
path of the pipeline could yield significantly more oil, on the west
from the Doba and Bongor basins.
