Babbage gas development plan approved

摘要

Dana Petroleum (40%) has approved the development of the Babbage gas field in the UK southern North Sea. Project partners Eon Ruhrgas (47%, operator) and Centrica Resources (13%) have also approved the project, which remains subject to formal UK Secretary of State approval. The field will be developed using three wells initially, with the option to drill a further two wells after first gas, across a newly built platform. The gas will be transported to West Sole and onwards to the Dimlington terminal on Humberside.
