Cenovus targets spring startup for West White Rose oil project offshore Newfoundland
Cenovus Energy expects to produce 70,000 to 80,000 boe/d next year from its operations offshore Eastern Canada and Southeast Asia, according to the company's 2026 capital budget report.
In the Atlantic region, the anticipated 20,000 to 25,000 bbl/d includes input from the West White Rose Field development in the Jeane d’Arc Basin offshore Newfoundland and Labrador, which is set to deliver first oil in the spring.
Production will then ramp us as more wells are brought onstream.
Cenovus has budgeted $450 million to $500 million for offshore expenditure in 2026, some allocated to the drilling at West White Rose where the integrated drilling platform was installed earlier this year by Allseas’ Pioneering Spirit heavy-lift vessel.
The platform will be connected to the SeaRose FPSO at the White Rose Field to the east.
