Scope of Work
Orbis prepared the Environmental Statement for the development of the Cheviot oil and gas reservoir and the Peel oil reservoir in the Northern North Sea.
The development concept comprised a FPSO facility, located in UKCS Block 3/6a, with development wells to be drilled from three drill centres. Manifolds at each the drill centres will be tied back to FPSO facility via a flexible production pipelines.
Of note is that the Cheviot field was formerly known as the Emerald field and was developed between 1989 and 1993 with the drilling of 18 development wells. Historical contamination impacts were therefore considered during the Cheviot Field Development EIA.
