+++ Description

  • The **Conwy** and **Corfe** Fields are to be developed as a subsea tieback to the BHP Billiton operated Douglas Complex.
  • The development consists of the installation of a Normally Unattended Installation (NUI) and the drilling of three platform production wells, two penetrating the Conwy reservoir and one penetrating the Corfe reservoir.
  • Two water injection wells will also be drilled, to support production from each field. The NUI will be tied back to the Douglas Complex via a 12 km production flowline, water injection pipeline and control and chemical umbilical. Fluids from the production wells will be comingled at the NUI manifold and exported to the Douglas Complex for processing
