Natural Gas Production in United Kingdom

Natural Gas - LONDON, England

It was reported in the Oil and Gas Journal, www.ogj.com that RWE Dea UK (United Kingdom) Development Ltd. has begun commercial gas production of 60 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMcfd) from one natural gas well in the Cavendish gas field which is located on Block 43/19a in the United Kingdom’s Southern Gas basin. The natural gas field lies in 18.5 meters of water.

The natural gas field operator is RWE Dea and is equal partners with Dana Petroleum PLC. They are drilling second and third wells that are expected to come on stream, on line, before the end of year. The Cavendish gas field is a Carboniferous gas field that was discovered in 1989 and is RWE Dea's first operated development project in the United Kingdom.

This natural gas development consists of a 6-slot, minimum-facilities fixed platform tied back to the Murdoch platform via 47 kilometers of newly laid pipeline. Murdoch natural gas is part of the Caister Murdoch natural gas system operated by ConocoPhillips, which transports the gas onward to the Theddlethorpe gas terminal in the United Kingdom from the Murdock facility.

The Cavendish natural gas field production originally was expected to start in the first quarter 0f 2007 with an initial flow of 100 million standard cubic feet of gas per day (MMcfd) and to continue until 2016.
