Izimpahla zokushintsha izandla zihlanganisa indawo yase-Andrew esetshenziswa yi-BP kanye nentshisekelo yayo engasebenzi emkhakheni we-Shearwater. Lesi sivumelwano, okulindeleke ukuthi sivalwe ngasekupheleni kwalo nyaka, siyingxenye yohlelo lwe-BP lokukhipha amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-10 ekupheleni kuka-2020.
"I-BP ibilokhu ibumba kabusha iphothifoliyo yayo yaseNorth Sea ukuze igxile ezindaweni ezikhulayo ezihlanganisa i-Clair, i-Quad 204 kanye nehabhu ye-ETAP," kusho u-Ariel Flores, umongameli wesifunda saseNorth Sea we-BP.
I-BP isebenza izinkambu ezinhlanu endaweni yase-Andrews: Andrews (62.75%);I-Arundel (100%);iFaragon (50%);I-Kinnaur (77%). Indawo yase-Andrew itholakala cishe ngamamayela angu-140 enyakatho-mpumalanga ye-Aberdeen futhi ihlanganisa nengqalasizinda ehlobene yolwandle olungaphansi kolwandle kanye nenkundla ye-Andrew lapho zonke izinkambu ezinhlanu zikhiqiza khona.
Uwoyela wokuqala watholwa endaweni yase-Andrews ngo-1996, kwathi ngo-2019, ukukhiqizwa kwesilinganiso phakathi kuka-25,000-30,000 BOE/D.BP wathi abasebenzi abangama-69 bazodluliselwa kuNdunankulu Amafutha ukuze basebenzise indawo yase-Andrew.
I-BP iphinde ibe nenzalo engu-27.5% ensimini ye-Shearwater esetshenziswa kwa-Shell, engamakhilomitha angu-140 empumalanga ye-Aberdeen, ekhiqize cishe ama-boe angu-14,000 ngo-2019.
I-Clare Field, esentshonalanga ye-Shetland Islands, ithuthukiswa ngezigaba. I-BP, ephethe ingxenye engu-45% ensimini, ithe uwoyela wokuqala esigabeni sesibili wafinyelelwa ngo-2018, nomphumela ohlosiwe wemiphongolo eyizigidi ezingu-640 kanye nokukhishwa okuphezulu kwemiphongolo engu-120,000 ngosuku.
Iphrojekthi ye-Quad 204, nayo esentshonalanga ye-Shetland, ihilela ukuthuthukiswa kabusha kwezimpahla ezimbili ezikhona - i-Schiehallion ne-Loyal fields.I-Quad 204 ikhiqizwa indawo entantayo, yokukhiqiza, yokugcina nokukhipha okubandakanya ukushintshwa kwezinsiza ezingaphansi kolwandle kanye nemithombo emisha.Insimu ethuthukisiwe yathola uwoyela wayo wokuqala ngo-2017.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-BP iphothula uhlelo olukhulu lokufakwa kwe-subsea tie-back, oluqeda isidingo sokwakha amapulatifomu amasha okukhiqiza ukuze kuthuthukiswe amanye amachibi aseceleni:
I-Journal of Petroleum Technology ingumagazini ohamba phambili we-Society of Petroleum Engineers, ehlinzeka ngamafuphi nezici ezigunyaziwe mayelana nenqubekelaphambili yobuchwepheshe bokuhlola nokukhiqiza, izindaba zemboni kawoyela negesi, kanye nezindaba mayelana ne-SPE namalungu ayo.
