TAQA said it has had first oil from the Cladhan field development in the UKCS.
The field, 100km north east of the Shetland Islands, has been developed as a subsea tie-back to the TAQA operated Tern Alpha platform.
The development consists of two producer wells and one injection well.
Peter Jones, TAQA’s UK managing director, said: “Cladhan is the third field developed by TAQA and the largest to date. First oil therefore represents a significant milestone. Developing Cladhan as a tie-back to Tern underlines our commitment to invest in infrastructure and to maximise economic recovery in the North Sea.”
TAQA is the operator of Cladhan, with a 64.5% interest. It’s co-venturers are Sterling Resources and MOL Group who hold a 2% and 33.5% interest respectively.
In the UKCS, TAQA currently operates five platforms which produce 13 fields spread across the Northern North Sea and the Central North Sea.
