London Array offshore wind farm receives government backing
London Array offshore wind farm receives government backing
18/12/2006
The consortium planning to build the world’s largest wind farm off the Kent coast, today welcomed the Government’s decision to grant consent for its offshore planning applications.
The consent gives the go ahead for the offshore sections of the 1,000MW wind farm which, if built, will displace nearly 2 million tonnes of CO2 a year. The wind farm would also generate enough electricity to power 750,000 homes, equivalent to a quarter of Greater London’s households or every home in Kent and East Sussex. The consent for the onshore substation, necessary to connect London Array into the national grid, remains outstanding and will now be subject to a Public Inquiry. Andrew Murfin, a Director of London Array Limited, said:“This is a significant step forward in the development of the London Array offshore wind farm ...

Shell announces plans to develop in the ultra deepwater of the Gulf of Mexico
Shell announces plans to develop in the ultra deepwater of the Gulf of Mexico
26/10/2006
Shell Offshore Inc. (Shell) announced today that it will develop the Great White, Tobago and Silvertip Fields via a Perdido Regional Development host, located in Alaminos Canyon, offshore Gulf of Mexico, approximately 200 miles south of Freeport, TX. Moored in about 8,000 feet of water, the regional DVA (direct vertical access) spar will be the deepest spar production facility in the world. First production from Perdido is expected around the turn of the decade, with the facility capable of handling 130,000 boe/d.
The concept for regional development includes a common processing hub in Alaminos Canyon Block 857 near the Great White discovery that incorporates drilling capability and functionality to gather, process and export production within a 30-mile radius of the facility. This concept will provide regional synergies, reduced cost and lower risk. This regional concept will also reduce the number and size of the facilities and operations in this challenging frontier area, resulting in a lower environmental impact than would otherwise be achieved. “The Perdido Foldbelt is remote and is located in ultradeep waters from about 7,500 - 10,000 feet, with rugged seafloor terrain,” explained Marvin Odum, Executive Vice President, EP Americas. “This geologic setting is different from what has previously been produced in the Gulf of Mexico and will establish the first production from the Lower Tertiary (Paleogene) play in the Gulf of Mexico. Shell has been a leader in the opening of this play, starting with exploration in the 1990's, and is proud to be at the leading edge of development and production. To accomplish this record-breaking feat, we will apply cutting-edge technology, engineering expertise and industry leadership." Shell was at the forefront of opening up the Lower Tertiary play in the western deepwater Gulf of Mexico with the Great White discovery in Alaminos Canyon and will be the first to bring production from this area to market. Shell, as operator, commenced exploratory drilling operations on March 6, 2002, in 8,009 feet of water. The well reached its final total depth on May 18, 2002. The original well was drilled to a true vertical depth of 14,405 feet. An appraisal well was drilled to a true vertical depth of 15,035 feet in 2002. Shell has drilled a total of five wells at Great White, with the most recent spud occurring in March 2004. Shell will operate the Perdido Regional Host. It will be jointly owned by Shell (35%), Chevron (37.5%) and BP (27.5%). Great White is located in Alaminos Canyon 812, 813, 814, 857, 900 and 901 and is owned by Shell (operator) with 33.34%, Chevron with 33.33% and BP with 33.33%. Tobago is located in Alaminos Canyon 859 in approximately 9,600 feet of water. It is operated by Shell with 32.5%, Chevron with 57.5%, and Nexen with 10%. The discovery well was drilled in 2004 to a total depth of 18,510 feet. A sidetrack well was drilled to 18,425 feet. Silvertip, in Alaminos Canyon 815, is operated by Shell with 40% interest. Chevron holds the remaining 60%. Chevron drilled the AC 815 #1 discovery well in August 2004 in approximately 9,200 feet of water, to a total depth of 14,778 feet.
