A redevelopment solution

Our innovative thinking, multi-discipline engineering team and the application of our wide-ranging expertise were key to this concept study, supporting Jersey Oil and Gas in identifying the most economically viable redevelopment solution for the Buchan Area field development.

The area has potentially recoverable resources of around 190 million barrels of oil equivalent.

Close collaboration ensures optimum concept 

The study focused on maximising regional cooperation and achieving best-in-class CO2 performance for this development.

We evaluated various host types, drilling strategies, export routes and commercial strategies to produce a shortlist of options for further appraisal. From this point, the most suitable design will be selected for front end engineering design (FEED).

Integrating our capabilities

Our integrated study team drew expertise from across our in-house engineering, consultancy and well engineering teams. 

Close collaboration with all those involved allowed us to quickly screen and assess multiple development options in line with Jersey Oil and Gas’ objectives.
