BP to Develop Tiber and Guadalupe Oilfields in US Gulf
by Jov Onsat|Rigzone Staff | Wednesday, October 01, 2025 |
BP PLC has announced a positive FID (final investment decision) on the Tiber-Guadalupe oil project in the Gulf of America, which involves installing a new production platform with a capacity of 80,000 barrels per day (bpd).
Targeted to be put onstream 2030, the project will build the British energy giant's seventh operated Gulf production platform, called Tiber. Along with the under-construction Kaskida project, the Tiber and Guadalupe fields will grow the company's Gulf production to over 400,000 barrels of oil equivalent (boe) a day, BP said in a statement on its website.
“Our decision to move forward on the Tiber-Guadalupe project is a testament to our commitment to continue investing in the Gulf of America and expand our energy production from one of the premier basins in the world", said Andy Krieger, BP senior vice president for Gulf of America and Canada.
BP estimates around 350 million boe of recoverable resources from Tiber and Guadalupe in the initial phase. With an estimated investment of $5 billion, the project consists of six wells in Tiber and a two-well tieback in Guadalupe.
"Additional wells could be drilled in future phases, subject to further evaluation", the statement said.
"BP is leveraging existing platform and subsea equipment designs to drive cost efficiencies across the Tiber-Guadalupe production hub’s construction, commissioning and operations", BP said. "Tiber project development costs are anticipated to be around $3 per barrel lower than the Kaskida project, including synergies from using more than 85 percent of the design from BP's Kaskida project".
Gordon Birrell, executive vice president for production and operations at BP, said, “Tiber-Guadalupe represents a significant step forward in our efforts to unlock the potential of the Paleogene in the Gulf of America, building on our decades of experience in the region. Together with our Kaskida project in the Paleogene, we expect Tiber-Guadalupe will be another world-class development".
