SAN RAMON, California -- Chevron Corp. has selected AVEVA to provide and implement its AVEVA NET Portal solution to manage critical information for operations on the Agbami FPSO, which will be the largest vessel of its type in the world.

Located 70 mi (43.5 km) offshore Nigeria, theAgbami FPSO will produce 250,000 b/d of oil per. The FPSO will inject water and associated gas for reservoir pressure management. It will also be equipped with the latest environmental protection technology.

AVEVA NET Portal is a web-enabled solution for integration and collaborative use of all engineering information. Schematics, 3D models, documents, and data from any application can be accessed and navigated in context, with full intelligence, without the need for the source application that originally created the data, AVEVA says.
