2.10. PRODUCTION<br />

<strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong> <strong>Environmental</strong> Statement<br />

Section 2 Proposed Development<br />

Production profiles have been developed for the <strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong> development which forecast the<br />

likely volumes of oil, gas <strong>and</strong> water that will be produced from the reservoirs. Consequently <strong>Flyndre</strong><br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong>s contribution to the total volumes of oil, gas <strong>and</strong> water processed on the Clyde have also<br />

been determined. Maximum case production profiles (P10) for oil, gas <strong>and</strong> produced water are<br />

provided in the following sections.<br />

2.10.1. OIL PRODUCTION RATE<br />

Table 2‐13 <strong>and</strong> Figure 2‐10 show the anticipated P10 oil production rate for the <strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong><br />

development <strong>and</strong> its impacts on the volumes processed on the Clyde. Peak daily oil production at the<br />

<strong>Flyndre</strong> field occurs in the first year of production with a maximum production of 2,259 te/d in 2013,<br />

decreasing to 198 te/d in 2026; the last year of production. Peak production at the <strong>Cawdor</strong> field is<br />

expected in 2018 (794 te/d). When the projected production from the <strong>Flyndre</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong> fields are<br />

combined, peak production is expected in 2013 with a production rate of 2,259 te/d. The<br />

development will increase peak oil production at the Clyde platform from 1,115 te/d (without <strong>Flyndre</strong><br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>Cawdor</strong>) to 3,374 te/d in 2013.<br />
