Product Information

The Clipper hub is situated 66km from the Norfolk coast and has a capacity to transport approximately 400 million standard cubic feet of gas a day.

The development of the Clipper South gas field comprised the drilling of five horizontal wells inducing several hydraulic fractures in each. The depth of the wells ranged between 3,876m and 5,866m.As part of the Clipper development new pipeline reception facilities and process plant was installed at the Shell terminal at the Bacton gas terminal. In addition to Clipper, the adjacent fields produced natural gas to the Clipper facility. [1] [2] Clipper area fields

The gas is now transported through the Clipper hub, where it is processed at Shell’s Bacton terminal in Norfolk and then fed into the UK National Grid. Contractors involved The Clipper field was developed by Shell as a central 3-platform bridge linked complex. [4] Three further bridge-linked platforms were added later. In addition to its own gas, Clipper was designed to be a central hub to receive and process well fluids from the surrounding installations. Processed gas was transmitted by pipeline from Clipper to the Bacton Gas Terminal, Norfolk. The main design parameters of the Clipper area installations are summarized in the table.

[5] [1] Gas Production The Clipper gas field is a major natural gas reservoir and gas production facility in the UK sector of the southern North Sea. The field is located about 73 km north-north-east of Bacton, Norfolk; the Clipper production facility has operated since 1990.
