Petrofac (LON: PFC) has landed a contract extension with EnQuest – taking it beyond 20 years as the duty holder on the Kittiwake asset in the North Sea.
EnQuest took a hit to its production in the first half of 2021 after a series of unplanned issues at Magnus, as well as a drop in output from its flagship Kraken field.
Petrofac has won the right to extend its time as duty-holder of the EnQuest-operated Kittiwake platform in the North Sea.
EnQuest has agreed to farm-down an 85% stake in its Eagle discovery in the North Sea to Anasuria Hibiscus for a “nominal” $1 fee.
North Sea oil firm EnQuest has confirmed it will change rota patterns for hundreds of its offshore workers.
Petrofac has been issued an improvement notice after a gas leak went undetected on a North Sea platform. The incident is understood to have happened in March on the Kittiwake platform, which is located 160km from Aberdeen. It is understood a worker alerted staff to the leak 84 minutes after it had first begun and production was immediately halted.
