Abstract

Abstract Sean North and Sean South are two small prolific gas fields located on the Indefatigable Shelf in the Southern North Sea. They, like most of the other fields in the area, have a Carboniferous source, a Rotliegend aeolian sandstone reservoir and a Zechstein evaporite cap rock. They have been developed to fullfil a peak-shaving role, being produced for only a few days per year in times of high gas demand when they produce at a rate of 600 MMSCFD. Initially thought to be two equally sized accumulations, there is now some evidence from material balance calculations that the Sean South is bigger than North Sean. The contractual recoverable reserves for the two fields are 425 BCF.
