Neptune starts additional production from Cygnus gas field
April 27, 2023
Neptune Energy began production from the 11th well at its operated Cygnus gas field in the southern North Sea.
The well is expected to produce about 4,000 boe/d, enough gas to heat about 200,000 UK homes, the operator said in a release Apr. 27.
Together with the 10th well started up earlier this year, Cygnus is expected to produce enough gas per day to meet the needs of around 1.9 million UK households (OGJ Online, Feb. 1, 2023).
Both wells were drilled by Borr Drilling’s Prospector 1 jack up rig.
Neptune Energy is operator at Cygnus with 38.75% working interest. Spirit Energy holds the remaining 61.25%.
