Central Cormorant UMC – Well Abandonment Operations
TAQA Bratani is conducting well abandonment operations on a number of wells at the Central Cormorant UMC.
The planned operations will consist of abandoning the reservoirs and, where applicable, removing the existing Xmas trees of six wells within the subsea field. The operation will be conducted by the Paragon MSS1 semi-submersible drilling rig, with operations to commence at the start of July 2019 and last until the end of June 2020. The rig will be anchored in a central location (61°11.394’N 01°06.261’E) and move or skid between wells as required. Pre-laying of approximately five anchors will take place ahead of the MSS1 arriving on site. A guard vessel will be stationed at the site during the pre-laying operations prior to the arrival of the rig.
The Paragon MSS1 will be located in the Central Cormorant UMC field UKCS Block 211/21a and 211/26.

West Brae 2019 Wells Project – Pipelay and Protection
Marathon Oil is developing a single well tieback extending between the West Brae WPOZ well and the West Brae Extension Manifold. The 6.2km tie-back will be developed via new production and gas lift pipelines and an EHC umbilical. The production from WPOZ will be routed through existing infrastructure at West Brae 9 km to the Brae Alpha Platform.
The earliest start date for lay operations to commence is 15th July. The subsequent rock dump operations are expected to be completed by 20th August. The operations will be undertaken from the following vessels: Seven Arctic CSV, Stornes FFV

Sleipner - Utgard – Installation of new equipment between Sleipner - Utgard
Equinor will in the period 05/03/2019 – 30/09/2019 perform marine subsea activities between Sleipner and Utgard. The Utgard offshore gas condensate field is located in the central North Sea in Block 15/8 of the NCS and Block 16/18a of the UKCS.
In 2018 Equinor installed a template on the Utgard field and this year they will install a new pipeline and umbilical between Utgard and Sleipner. The pipeline and the umbilical will NOT be of an over-trawlable design until the final work is performed in end of September 2019. There will also be wet stored unprotected structures and equipment close to the Utgard template which poses a risk fishing activity. These will be of NON-over-trawlable design.

Pickerill B Installation 48/11a & A Installation 48/11b– Decommissioning Works
The Energy Endeavour Jack-up Barge is currently in the Pickerill Field 48/11 in the Southern North Sea) supporting the Pickerill B Platform Decommissioning Works. The Energy Endeavour is planning to leave the Pickerill B Platform and move to the Pickerill A Platform within the Pickerill Field.
The sail from the Pickerill B platform to the Pickerill A platform is anticipated to commence at 02:00 hours on the 8 July 2019 and take approximately 2-3 hours, with the Jack-Up barge due on location at an estimated time of 05:00 hours on the 8 July 2019.
The Jack-Up Barge will be towed into the stand-off position (75m from platform), it will then jack-up and run anchors, and then finally jack-down and be pulled into its final position approx.1.5m adjacent to the Pickerill A gas platform using the anchor wires.
The barge will support the decommissioning activities on the platform. These activities will include: plugging and abandonment of the platform wells, venting and purging of the topsides equipment, cleaning and flushing of the subsea pipelines, preparation of the installation for removal, and supporting the decommissioning of Neptune’s Juliet subsea completion which ties into the Pickerill A platform.
The earliest date for commencement of the works is 9 July 2019. The works on Pickerill A are expected to last until Jan /Feb 2020.
The decommissioning works will be supported by the
‘Energy Endeavour’ Northern Offshore Jack-up Barge

Rig anchors may extend over one mile from rig positions; anchor buoys are not always deployed. There may be additional structures called anchor pennants, deployed up to 200 metres from each anchor. In the interests of safety and to avoid fishing gear damage, fishing close to, or within anchor patterns, should be avoided. Fishermen may contact the installation or the ERRV (standby vessel) for positions of the anchors.
