Nexen Golden Eye Development

The oil fields are located in blocks 20/1, 20/1N and 14/26a of the North Sea, about 110 km north east of Aberdeen. The field is developed using two platforms - a wellhead platform and a production, utility and quarters (PUQ) platform. The two platforms will be connected by a 70m bridge. The topsides of the platform is supported by a four-legged jacket weighing 6,000t. The platform's deck includes a separate living quarters to accommodate 140 personnel. First production from the project is expected in 2014 at the rate of 60,000 to 65,000 barrels of oil a day (bopd).
