The field covers approximately 60 km² in an average water depth of 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and was discovered in 1996, with government approval for its development given in 2002.

The field began first production in November 2005. The field is produced via a FPSO vessel and produces both petroleum and natural gas; the petroleum is offloaded to tankers while the gas is piped back to Nigeria where it is exported via an LNG plant. The oilfield contains approximately 6,000 mmBoe.

The Bonga Field is operated by Shell Nigeria who own 55% of the license, other partners in the field development are Exxon (20%), Nigerian AGIP (12.5%) and Elf Petroleum (12.5%)
