+++ Description
- The Juno development consists of the Apollo, Minerva, **Whittle**, **Wollaston** and Artemis gas fields
- The Minerva hub facilities consist of sub sea production systems on Apollo and Artemis and a normally unmanned installation at Minerva
- The Wollaston and Whittle fields are developed via sub sea wells and flowlines tied back via a manifold and a 12-inch diameter pipeline to the ECA riser tower, where they will are commingled with the Minerva hub fluids.
- The combined flow is exported via a 16-inch diameter pipeline to the BG-operated ECA riser tower bridge linked to the Cleeton platforms, where the gas is separated, dried and metered before transmission via the BP Cleeton/Dimlington pipeline system, to the Easington Gas Processing Terminal
