Oil is transported from the Fenja field to the platform for processing and transportation via a 36 km electrically trace-heated (ETH) pipe-in-pipe solution.

As the oil from the Fenja field contains wax, it must be warmed up before the flow can be restarted after a shutdown.

Neptune Energy Managing Director in Norway and the UK Odin Estensen said: “The Fenja development is an excellent example of how our industry uses innovative technologies to overcome challenges.

“The ETH pipe-in-pipe solution is crucial for transporting the oil and is a creative, cost-effective approach that enables the field to be tied back to existing infrastructure. Fenja is also located in a strategically important growth area for Neptune Energy, with a number of other interesting prospects nearby.”

The oil field is estimated to have between 50 and 75 million boe, with 75% being oil and 25% gas.

Last week, Neptune Energy said it has begun gas production from the 11th well in the Cygnus gas field, which is located in the North Sea.
