Description

  • The Saxon Field is located approximately 160km east of Aberdeen in Block 21/23b in the Central North Sea.
  • Petro-Canada developed the Saxon field as a subsea tie-back to the existing Pict Oil Field manifold.
  • The development consists of two production wells situated around a new drill centre (DC8) tied back to DC7 by a 2.35km 10" flexible production pipeline.
  • Gas lift will be required from the start of production and this will be supplied from the existing Pict DC7 manifold through a new 4" flexible gas lift pipeline. A combined control, power, signal, hydraulic and chemical injection umbilical will also be installed from the DC7 manifold.
  • Production is via the Triton FPSO
