TotalEnergies Begins Production from Ballymore Deepwater Field in U.S. Gulf

(IN BRIEF) TotalEnergies has begun production at the Ballymore deepwater field in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, developed in partnership with Chevron. Located off the coast of Louisiana, Ballymore adds nearly 30,000 boe/d of net production to TotalEnergies at full capacity. The project, which uses existing infrastructure and standardized equipment, supports the Company’s strategic focus on low-cost, low-emission oil and gas production. With this addition, TotalEnergies’ deepwater output in the U.S. surpasses 75,000 boe/d and reinforces its plan for over 3% hydrocarbon production growth in 2025.

(PRESS RELEASE) PARIS, 22-Apr-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — TotalEnergies has commenced production from the Ballymore field, a major deepwater development located approximately 120 kilometers off the coast of Louisiana. The field is operated by Chevron (60% interest), with TotalEnergies holding a 40% stake. Launched in May 2022, Ballymore is now delivering hydrocarbons to the market, enhancing the Company’s U.S. offshore portfolio.

Ballymore is tied back to Chevron’s Blind Faith floating production unit and boasts a gross production capacity of 75,000 barrels of oil per day and 50 million cubic feet of gas per day. TotalEnergies’ net share at peak output will reach nearly 30,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, providing a significant boost to the Company’s cash-generative production in the Gulf of Mexico.

The project leverages existing offshore infrastructure and standardized equipment to reduce both capital costs and environmental footprint, aligning with TotalEnergies’ strategy to develop low-emission, high-margin oil and gas assets.

“The Ballymore start-up will push our U.S. deepwater production above 75,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, supporting our overall hydrocarbon production growth target of more than 3% for 2025,” said Nicolas Terraz, President of Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies. “The U.S. remains a cornerstone for our integrated energy strategy, where we are developing competitive, low-carbon oil and gas projects alongside our LNG and power businesses.”
