British oil and gas company BP, together with its partners Neptune Energy and JAPEX, has started production from the Seagull oil and gas field in the UK North Sea.
Seagull is expected to produce around 50,000 barrels of oil equivalent gross per day at peak production, which will be exported to Grangemouth, Scotland through the Forties Pipeline.
The produced gas will be exported to Teesside through the Central Area Transmission System.
“The start-up of Seagull is a fantastic milestone that demonstrates how BP is investing in today’s energy system and, at the same time, investing in the energy transition.”
