1) Executive Summary
➢ Oil production on the UK Continental Shelf increased in the latest year for the
second time since 2007. Gas output was also up compared with 2015.
➢ Oil production excluding NGLs totalled 44.9 Million Tonnes in 2016, an increase from
44.3 in 2015. Output has risen 20.2% over the last two years.
➢ Nexen tops the list of Oil producers in 2016 with output of 4.86 million Tonnes.
➢ Gas production rose from 46,533 MMCuM in 2015 to 48,329 MMCuM in 2016 an
increase of 3.9% with Laggan/Tormore playing a key role in the uplift.
➢ Shell heads up the gas list with 6.797Bn Cubic Metres produced in 2016 including
production from the fields acquired through the purchase of BG.
➢ Total’s start-up of Laggan/Tormore helped them produce of 6.266BnCuM in 2016.

➢ The following new fields were brought on stream in 2016:
o LAGGAN (Total)
o CONWY (EOG)
o SOLAN (Premier)
o AVIAT (Apache)
o TORMORE (Total)
o ALDER (Chevron)
o SCOLTY (Enquest)
o CRATHES (Enquest)
o CYGNUS (Engie)

➢ Oil production was 44.9 Million Tonnes in 2016. Output will rise substantially in 2017 as
production has been restored at Schiehallion and a number of new fields brought
onstream. In recent years DECC (now BEIS), OGA and the OBR forecast output going
down. Output will rise steeply in 2017 but BEIS/OGA & the OBR predict it will flatline.
DECC predicts it’ll flatline from 2017 onwards. We predict a steep rise from 2017-19.
➢ The above chart shows oil output from the UKCS in every year from 1975 onwards. It
shows the effect of current investment on future production by graphing the projected
output from fields which are in the process of coming online. Even allowing for natural
rates of decline, the increase between 2013 and 2018 will be over 50 percent.
➢ Wood Mackenzie produced a similar projection to the one above. BEIS/OGA shows a
flatline in oil output from 2016 to 2019. This seems impossibly negative. The impossibly
negative BEIS/OGA projection is the one the OBR use when attacking Scottish
Government projections. OGA analysis is partial, it doesn’t reflect reality – it’s wrong.
https://www.ogauthority.co.uk/media/3391/oga-production-projections-february-2017.pdf
➢ The chart below presents an attempt to represent gas production over the same period
as oil, from 1975 onwards. The attempt is somewhat fraught since much of the DECC
information starts in 1995 (the big green slice) when actual production started much
earlier but wasn’t recorded. Reality would be more bell-shaped than what’s here.

➢ Shell’s purchase of BG has moved them top of the gas rankings. Total’s startup of
Laggan/Tormore and an increase in output from Elgin/Franklin has placed them second.
Centrica has slipped down from top of the heap to number three.
➢ Centrica has stated the Rough Storage facility will be permanently closed. It isn’t clear
what steps are being taken by UK plc to fill this gap in security of supply of gas.
➢ The price of Brent Crude averaged $43.73 per barrel in 2016 a fall 16.5%. The Heren Energy
gas price fell by 26.6% in 2016 to an average of $4.93 per Million BTUs.
➢ Saudi Arabia and OPEC took steps in 2016 to control production with a view to raising prices.
This was a modest success with prices back over $50.00 as this is written in August 2017.
OPEC worked with Russia to control output.
➢ The main swing producer remains the USA where efforts to control production are illegal.
When oil hits $50 a culture of “drill baby drill” ensures they make little progress above this.

Note: Oil price per barrel $43.73 is taken from BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2017 page 20.
No attempt has been made to determine the quality of oil in each field and to adjust accordingly.
Sales value is therefore an approximation based on an average price for Brent Crude in 2016.

attempt has been made to determine the quality of oil in each field and to adjust accordingly. Sales
value is therefore an approximation based on an average Brent price for 2016.

Hurricane Energy’s Lancaster Field is one of the most promising West of Shetland developments of
recent years. Hurricane suspended plans to farm out the development when it became clear they could
raise finance themselves through a share placement. Hurricane is one of few emerging firms able to

Chevron’s Rosebank Field was kicked into the long grass due to the very high cost of the
development at a time, prior to the collapse in oil price, when contractors could name their price. It

Maersk has the Courageous Field (30/2-1) down for future development. Information released on two
appraisal wells drilled in 2016 showed the sidetrack well encountered a 123ft oil column. A well
looking for an Eastern extension was tight.

Maersk has the Brochel Field down for future development. Brochel was discovered by Shell’s
15/18a-6 ST well which found a 159ft oil column with net pay of 96ft and flow of 1,950bpd.
Crosgan is a project being developed by Ineos (75%) the operators of the Grangemouth Refinery in
Scotland. Sterling Resources (25%) is their partner on this project which found a total of 61ft of pay
in two zones with well 42/15a-3.

Shell Exploration & Production have postponed development of their Fram prospect following
disappointing initial drilling results in 2013. The FPSO was cancelled. There’s been no comment from
Shell regarding Fram since 2013.

BG group were looking to develop their Jackdaw prospect by 2022. A Final Investment Decision
(FID) was expected to be made in 2017. The 2017 appraisal well 30/2a-8Z showed a vertical gas
column of 546ft and flowed at 1,808barrels per day (Condensate) and 20.885mmcuft gas per day.

Kepler 43/20b-2 was being developed by Ineos in association with Sterling Resources. Sterling
secured an adjoining block in the 26th
Offshore Licensing Round. Attempts to commercialise Kepler
have failed due to a combination of small, poorly defined, resource volumes and the additional
cost of dealing with the high CO2 content. Given its fallow status and lack of a firm activity plan, part
block 43/20e (Kepler) was relinquished effective 30/10/2015.

Shell has the Puffin Field down as a future development. The Fram Field Development Plan (FDP)
shows various wells have been drilled in and around Puffin which seems to have a complex structure
and is part oil, part gas and part condensate in a difficult to drill prospect.

BP identified Suilven well 204/19-8z as a field for future development West of Shetland. There has
been no update from BP on this project for several years possibly due to work at Clair and
Schiehallion.

Siccar Point has also purchased OMV’s stake in the Tornado gas prospect. The discovery well,
204/13-1 found mostly gas in Tertiary reservoir sandstones approximately 90 feet thick. The follow-
up sidetrack, 204/13-1Z was also drilled in 2009. Lack of a gas export line has halted progress.

Hurricane Energy’s Whirlwind development will follow the completion of Lancaster. Whirlwind is
located across blocks 205/21a and 205/22a in the West of Shetland, some 10km north of Lancaster
discovery. Hurricane's well, 205/21a-5 suggests 2C Contingent Resources of 205 MMboe (oil case)
or 179 MMboe (gas –condensate case) at Whirlwind.

Sanda North is owned by Parkmead who have yet to drill an exploration well on the field. At this
stage it is difficult to predict future output. Parkmead’s short-term focus is on low cost development in
Dutch gas fields which have brought positive cash flow and profits.

Halifax is another field discovered by Hurricane Energy. Drilling in 2017 suggests it is connected to
the Lancaster Field as part of a huge potential development. The 205/23-3A well for the Halifax
prospect was drilled on West of Shetlands Blocks 205/22b, 205/23, and 205/24.

Fairfield has been acquired by Ineos. Three wells were previously drilled in partnership with Taqa.
Well 211/27e-13 was dry, and the other two 211/27e-13z and 211/27a-14 encountered only partial oil
columns. The 211/27e-13 well result showed that hydrocarbon trapping by the Brent-on-Brent fault
seal had failed.

Antrim Resources has stopped developing the Fyne and Erne Fields where it hoped to produce 4,000

Taqa Global’s Darwin development appears to have been dropped following the drilling of a dry well

prior to the well being drilled. Two further wells didn’t result in a decision to proceed.
