The FPSO is the world's largest unit of this type operating in difficult weather conditions. Production is planned to commence in the second half of this year, and PGNiG SA will be the first Polish company engaged in commercial oil and gas production abroad.

In Q4 2010, the PGNiG Group's net profit fell 15%, to PLN 1.1bn, from PLN 1.3bn in Q4 2009, on the back of a 12 pp decline of the margin on high-methane gas sales between the two quarters caused by an increase in the unit purchase price of of imported gas. Net profit for the entire 2010 was PLN 2.46bn, up on PLN 1.24bn in 2009. One of the factors contributing to the growth were the record-high volume of gas sales.
