The Mad Dog 2 is the second platform that Wood Group designed for BP in the Gulf of Mexico Mad Dog field.
Mad Dog Phase 2 is located in the deepwater Green Canyon area, which will have a new floating production platform with the capacity to produce up to 140,000bpd gross, reported Oedigital.com.
Situated around 4,500ft under water, this Mad Dog Phase 2 is a southern and south-western extension of the existing Mad Dog field approximately 190 miles from New Orleans.
