Ensign Gas Field Development

The field lies in blocks 48/14a and 48/15a of the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS). Centrica Energy Upstream, a production and exploration arm of the UK-based company Centrica, owns and operates the field. First gas from the field was produced in May 2012. The initial gas production from the field is enough to power about 225,000 households. The field has estimated gas reserves of about 97bcf. The field is expected to produce about 2.3 million metric standard cubic metres (MMSm3) of gas a day.
