Marathon assets, such as those in the Bakken and Eagle Ford plays, are indicative of our steady growth and the exciting opportunities that are yet to come.
At Marathon, we realize the importance of being transparent and regularly sharing company and industry information with our customers, employees and stakeholders.
Pablo Ondo Zetmayer, a gas plant operator in Equatorial Guinea, is a prime example of Marathon’s globally diverse workforce, which enjoys worldwide experiences and world-class opportunities.
With a focus on safety, innovation and environmental stewardship, Marathon is among the world’s leading independent exploration and production companies.
Equatorial Guinea
The West African nation of Equatorial Guinea holds key Marathon base assets. These include the Alba Field (63 percent working interest), the Alba liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) plant, Atlantic Methanol Production Company LLC (AMPCO) and a liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facility on Bioko Island. High reliability helps boost production and income from our Integrated Gas segment.
Marathon established our Alba exploration and production area in early 2002. Since then, we have initiated and participated in social responsibility initiatives addressing critical health, social, education and other issues in EG. We continue to work with our business partners, the EG government, and international non-profit and research organizations on programs including:
- Bioko Island Malaria Control Project (BIMCP), an innovative and successful approach to eradicating malaria
- Education, training and development of Equatoguineans to work in our facilities
- Efforts to improve maternal and infant health
- Support for EG’s participation in the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI)
High operating reliability, which is central to Marathon's ability to grow production profitably, is paying off. Results show a direct linkage between this key aspect of operational excellence and increased production and revenues.
Marathon’s Equatorial Guinea LNG (EGLNG) facility operational availability was 97.2 percent in 2010, compared to 95.5 percent in the prior year. High reliability, coupled with innovative process optimization in 2009 and 2010, increased gross production to 3.75 million metric tonnes of LNG in 2010. This world class operation continues to provide significant production rates for Marathon and our partners.
