New UK North Sea-focused oil and gas company Tailwind Energy has announced first oil from the 100% owned Gannet E redevelopment to the Triton FPSO.  

The London-based contracts services company for North Sea work said in a press note that the subsea tieback project was completed in September 2018 with first oil delivered on budget and on schedule.

All three wells are producing higher than expectation providing a combined rate of ca.10kbbl/d, it said.

Across its portfolio, Tailwind will exit the year producing in excess of 20kbbl/d net to the company. The field is operated by Tailwind with Dana as the pipeline & facility operator and Petrofac as the well operator.  

"Gannet E further establishes Tailwind’s portfolio of producing fields and demonstrates the company’s ability to successfully bring new reserves online," said the release.
