The field was discovered in the year 1981 by Exxon Mobil Corporation.Mobil Corporation, a subsidiary of Exxon Mobil Corporation in Nigeria has been the operator of Edop since 1981. As per the Nigerian fiscal regime, the operator entered into a joint venture with Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. Hence the stake of Mobil Corporation is 40% and that of NNPC is 60%.

The field reservoir contains sweet (low sulphur about 0.1%) crude oil with an average specific gravity of around 37.4° API (American Petroleum Institute). Edop produced 12.4 million barrels of crude oil during 2009. The cumulative production to 2009 is 585.3 million barrels of oil. Peak production from the field was 60.2 million barrels of oil in 1995.The field life of Edop is expected to be 39 years, with production ending in 2025. The field is expected to generate $13 billion in revenues (undiscounted) during its remaining life (starting from January 1, 2010) and is expected to yield an IRR of around 22.91%.
