Description

  • The F3-B complex is the main platform for gas and oil production in the northern part of the FLQ cluster. F3-B is located 210 km from Den Helder at a water depth of 42.5 metres. The production platform is bridge-linked to an accommodation platform with space for up to 36 personnel. A separate, unmanned oil offloading tower is located nearby. The facility is also used to treat, store and transport third-party produced oil at Ravn in Denmark and A6A in Germany.
  • Q13a is at the southern end of the FLQ Cluster. This is located near the Dutch coast 13 km from Scheveningen. This was installed as a fully electrified production platform in 2013. The platform is unmanned. The oil production from Q13a-A is exported to shore to Rotterdam via the TAQA-operated P15c complex. In 2019 was announced that the Q13a-A was selected as host for the first ever offshore green hydrogen pilot, PosHYdon. Green hydrogen production is expected mid 2022. You can read more about the PosHYdon project here.
  • HPHT (high pressure high temperature) gas wells are also present in this area. The gas produced at L5a-D, L5-FA, L12 and L15-FA is transported via the Netra NOGAT Pipeline System to the plant in Den Helder.
