Everest gasfield
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Everest gasfield lies in the Central North Sea and is operated by bp in partnership with British Gas, Amerada Hess, ConocoPhilips and Total. It was discovered in 1982 with first gas produced in 1993. There is a permanent production installation in the North area of the field containing 11 surface wells and a flowline connecting to two subsea wells in the South area.
The North Everest platform is also the location for the starting point of the Central Area Transmission System (CATS) pipeline, which relays gas from Everest and a number of others including Lomond and Armada, to the CATS terminal at Teeside. Any condensates and liquids are routed via Forties.
