operations
Use of finite materials
such as chemicals and
steel. There will be a
increase in chemical use
with production,
however there will be no
changes to the surface
infrastructure.
Cooling fans used to
reduce the operating
temperature of turbines
and engines discharges
warm air. No increase in
thermal discharges are
expected with the
Flyndre Cawdor
development.
None of the
maintenance operations
in place on the GPIII will
change as a result of the
Flyndre Cawdor
development.
Use of non‐renewable resources. Talisman has an
expectation to recognise
the limitations of resource
availability. Company
Policy to minimise waste.
Likelihood Consequence Risk This includes reducing the
quantity of materials used.
1 2 Low
Increase in air temperature at point of discharge. Adherence to operating
procedures and well
maintained equipment.
Likelihood Consequence Risk
1 1 Low
Wastes from some of these procedures may
affect water quality and marine life while others
will generate atmospheric emissions.
Likelihood Consequence Risk
1 2 Low
Adherence to operating
practices and well
maintained equipment.
