Description
- The Cambo field is the second largest undeveloped oil and gas discovery in the UK North Sea, located in the West of Shetland region.
- Cambo will be developed using a purpose-built Sevan FPSO. Modern equipment designed to operate without the need for routine flaring or venting of hydrocarbons will be used to reduce emissions.
- When production commences, the field is expected to produce less than half of the amount of CO2 for each barrel produced than the average UK field. The development will be built electrification-ready.
