In Angola's prolific deepwater oil province, the facility listed as AO GPO is the Greater Plutonio FPSO, a floating production, storage and offloading vessel moored over Block 18 some 160 km north-west of Luanda. Operated by BP with a 50 % stake alongside Sonangol Sinopec, it has processed up to 240,000 barrels per day and holds as much as 1.74 million barrels on board since production began in 2007. The unit exports only the medium-gravity, low-sulphur Plutonio crude blend, loaded into tankers through a dedicated offloading buoy. There are no facilities for containers, breakbulk or refrigerated cargo, and no conventional customs port or hinterland road connection. Forwarders handling containerised or general cargo for Angola route it through Luanda, while oilfield project equipment typically moves via Soyo or Lobito.
