Following the announcement by Shell that production on the Brent Alpha and Bravo platforms will finally cease from November 1, Energy Voice takes a look back on its 40 year history in the North Sea.
The Brent field was discovered in 1971 and began producing in 1976. The license is jointly owned by Shell UK and Esso Exploration and Production UK.
There are four platforms within the field, the Alpha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta.
