The primary reservoirs are Lower Cretaceous turbidite sandstones of the Captain Sandstone Member. Upper Jurassic shallower-marine Heather Formation sandstones of Oxfordian age provide a secondary reservoir. Total oil in place exceeds 1 Bbbl; however, the oil is heavy and viscous, requiring the continuous application of innovative technologies to maximize economic recovery from the field. Captain has been producing since 1997, with reservoir waterflood planned from the outset. Captain has been developed using long horizontal producers to maximize reservoir contact. Water injectors provide pressure support, with the aim of full voidage replacement. The Captain development has been phased with facilities consisting of two bridge-linked platforms, a floating production, storage and offloading vessel, and two subsea manifolds. Peak oil rate (100 000 boepd) was achieved in 2002. Average production in 2019 was 28 000 boepd. Captain is executing a chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) project, a first for the UK North Sea. Conventional waterflood yields an estimated ultimate recovery of 30–40%. Chemical EOR is expected to improve this by 5–20% in areas of the reservoir under polymer flood.","PeriodicalId":84271,"journal":{"name":"Biological memoirs","volume":"31 1","pages":"705 - 716"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75771989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Production started in 1998 via 17 pre-drilled development wells and was followed by a decade of intensive drilling, whereby a further 40 wells were added. In 2000 Britannia's plateau production of 800 MMscfgd supplied 8% of the UK's domestic gas requirements. As the field has matured, so too has its development strategy. Initial near-field development drilling targeting optimal reservoir thickness was followed by extended reach wells into the stratigraphic pinchout region. In 2014 a further strategy shift was made, moving from infill drilling to a long-term compression project to maximize existing production. During its 20-year history the Britannia Platform has undergone numerous changes. In addition to compression, production from five satellite fields has been routed through the facility: Caledonia (2003), Callanish and Brodgar (2008), Enochdhu (2015) and Alder (2016). A new field, Finlaggan, is due to be brought through Britannia's facilities in 2020, helping to maximize value from the asset for years to come. As Britannia marks 20 years of production it has produced c. 600 MMboe – surpassing the original ultimate recoverable estimate of c. 570 MMboe – and is still going strong today.","PeriodicalId":84271,"journal":{"name":"Biological memoirs","volume":"6 1","pages":"664 - 678"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85154061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The field is located in the Outer Moray Firth of the North Sea and comprises stacked Upper Jurassic turbidite reservoirs of Late Kimmeridgian–Mid Volgian age, encased within Kimmeridge Clay Formation mudstones. The stratigraphic trap is produced by pinchout of the reservoir layers to the north, west and south. Production commenced in January 2007 and the field has subsequently produced 52% over the estimated reserves at commencement of development, surpassing initial performance expectations. Phase I drilling was completed in 2014 with 38 wells drilled from 36 platform slots. Platform drilling recommenced in 2018, followed in 2019 by Phase II drilling from a new northern manifold location. The evolution of the depositional model has been a key aspect of field development. Integration of production surveillance and dynamic data identified shortcomings in the appraisal depositional model. A sedimentological study based on core reinterpretation created an updated depositional model, which was then integrated with seismic and production data. The new depositional model is better able to explain non-uniform water sweep in the field resulting from a more complex sandbody architecture of stacked channels prograding over underlying lobes.","PeriodicalId":84271,"journal":{"name":"Biological memoirs","volume":"19 1","pages":"691 - 704"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86903482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Acting as the hub for the gas-condensate-producing normal-pressure–normal-temperature (NPNT) satellites, Shearwater, which produces high-pressure–high-temperature (HPHT) Jurassic reservoirs, comprises a bridge-linked wellhead jacket to a production platform. The satellites, developed as subsea tiebacks, target Paleocene turbidite reservoirs, with the Starling Field most distant at 33 km from the host while Merganser is tied in via Scoter through a 15 km pipeline. Each satellite consists of a subsea manifold connected to two production wells at Merganser, and three production wells each at Scoter and Starling. All reservoir traps at the satellites are due to Permian-age Zechstein salt diapirs. Starling and Scoter produce Forties Sandstone Member reservoirs via three deviated wells targeting anticline structures. At Merganser, two long horizontal production wells cross over 4000 ft of faulted Paleocene reservoir intervals to produce under salt diapir overhangs. The satellites have been instrumental in maintaining the Shearwater facilities given early main field well failures, whilst recent challenges have developed as the satellites mature, requiring infill wells and well interventions to maximize economic recovery.","PeriodicalId":84271,"journal":{"name":"Biological memoirs","volume":"59 1","pages":"589 - 605"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78320776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
