The operator expects output to peak at 60,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Production at the Ndungu full-field launched six months after the Agogo floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit achieved first oil.
The company will integrate the Agogo Integrated West Hub in phases, with initial production from Ndungu routed through the N’goma FPSO before moving to the Agogo FPSO at a later stage.
This approach aims to maintain consistent long-term production from Block 15/06 and support Angola’s national petroleum output targets.
Eni indicated that combined production from the Agogo and Ndungu fields is expected to reach around 175,000bopd.

Prior to this, Eni confirmed a gas and condensate discovery in Block CI-501 offshore Côte d’Ivoire following drilling at the Murene South-1X well. The company said that the find, Calao South, highlighted the potential of the Calao channel complex.
In December 2025, Eni reported a gas discovery from drilling at the Konta-1 exploration well within the Muara Bakau production sharing contract in Indonesia’s Kutei basin.
The Konta-1 well encountered an initial estimated gas reserve of 600 billion cubic feet, with potential reserves exceeding one trillion cubic feet.
