The existing Montrose platform, originally installed in 1976 and one of the oldest in the UK North Sea, will undergo significant modifications including the development of a new Montrose Bridge Linked Platform (BLP) which is planned to be installed in 2015. Cayley and Shaw fields will be developed and tied back to the BLP.

 

The development of the tie-back projects extends the life of the existing fields by 13 years to 2030. Production is expected to start in 2016, with gross incremental production peaking at around 36,000 barrels a day.

 

The project will create or sustain more than 2,000 UK jobs within the fabrication, engineering, construction, installation, subsea engineering and drilling sectors. It involves the integration of established fields and related existing infrastructure with two undeveloped fields, Cayley and Shaw.

 

Talisman Sinopec Energy UK Limited is the operator with a working interest of 58.97%, and Marubeni Oil & Gas (U.K.) Limited is the sole partner.
