It will be the deepest drilling and production system, it will support the deepest subsea producing well (9600’ water depth), and getting the oil to shore will require the deepest subsea pipeline tie-in (5000’ water depth).  All the production from the field will be commingled with the gas and liquid separated through a unique subsea separation system and pumped to the surface.
