Project Outcomes

• A 7 bar pipeline was installed to reduce capital expenditure. It was significantly cheaper and easier to build an intermediate pressure pipeline than a high-pressure pipeline
• The remote compound was built to house compressors and an ROV, where gas is compressed to 42 bar and injected into the network. This was the first use of this particular layout in the UK
• It was decided to manage the risk of having out-of-specification gas trapped in the pipeline in the event it was rejected at the GEU, negating the requirement for a remote reject line
