AbstractMap depicting the position and names of the main gas producing fields located in the Southern North Sea. The international border (median line) between the UK and The netherlands is highlighted as are the producing fields Iincluding one small oil producer) in the neighbouring Dutch sector. The boxed areas show the extent of licensed acreage in the region.

AbstractThe Grove gas field is located in the Southern North Sea, within the UK offshore licence Blocks 49/10a, 49/9c and 49/10c. The field lies 180 km east of the Humberside coast and 4 km from the UK–Netherlands median line on the western margin of the Cleaver Bank High. The reservoir consists of late Westphalian C fluvial red beds interbedded with mud-prone floodplain deposits. Grove was put on production in 2007 through a single normally unmanned platform which is connected to the Markham J6A facilities by means of a 13.4 km 10-inch pipeline and subsequently exported to Den Helder in the Netherlands. The field has been developed by means of six production wells, targeting a variety of fault blocks and sandstone units. Reservoir complexity due to differential erosion, heterogeneity and faulting has presented development challenges and productivity per well is highly variable. Additionally, the evaporites within the overlying Zechstein Group present drilling and well integrity issues.

AbstractAn integrated stratigraphical analysis emphasizing organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) distribution has been carried out on multiple boreholes penetrating the Miocene in the subsurface of the Netherlands (southern North Sea Basin). The bulk of the investigated successions is attributed to the Breda Formation, a regional lithostatigraphical unit most complete in the south-eastern part of the Netherlands. In concert with a first regional integrated bio (chrono) sequence-stratigraphical framework, fourteen informal dinocyst zones for the southern North Sea Miocene (SNSM), and three subzones are proposed for the Breda Formation. By also integrating (chrono)stratigraphic information from Mediterranean and North Atlantic dinocyst studies a first ever detailed age-model is here proposed for the Miocene in the subsurface of the Netherlands.

AbstractThe Hewett Field has been in production for some 50 years. Unusually for a Southern North Sea field in the UK Sector, there has been production from several different reservoirs and almost entirely from intervals younger than the principal Leman Sandstone Formation (LSF) reservoir in the basin. Some of these reservoirs are particular to the Hewett area. This reflects the location of the field at the basin margin bound by the Dowsing Fault Zone, which has influenced structural evolution, deposition and the migration of hydrocarbons. The principal reservoirs are the Permo-Triassic Hewett Sandstone (Lower Bunter), Triassic Bunter Sandstone Formation (BSF) (Upper Bunter) and Permian Zechsteinkalk Formation. There has also been minor production from the Permian Plattendolomit Formation and the LSF. Sour gas is present in the BSF only. Several phases of field development are recognized, ultimately comprising three wellhead platforms with production from 35 wells. Gas is exported onshore to Bacton, where the sour gas was also processed. Peak production was in 1976 and c. 3.5 tcf of gas has been recovered. Hewett has also provided the hub for six satellite fields which have produced a further 0.9 tcf of gas. It is expected that the asset will cease production in 2020.

AbstractThe Pickerill Field is a dry gas accumulation straddling four separate licences in the UK Southern North Sea. Discovered in 1984, 12 appraisal wells were drilled to define the field before Annex B approval in 1989. Subsequently, Pickerill has been developed using 15 high angle wells, a large number of which have been sidetracked reflecting the geological complexity of the accumulation. Pickerill has been in production since August 1992, and has an estimated initial reserves in excess of 500 BCF.
