Hurricane Energy plc: Operational Update
Monday 21 January 2019
Hurricane Energy plc provided an operational update in relation to the Early Production System development of the Lancaster field.
During the buoy hook-up operation on 18 January 2019, the rope being used to pull in the buoy became snagged and it was not possible to complete the hook-up operation. The rope has now been freed and the buoy returned to its starting position. Due to the predicted deterioration in weather conditions, the Aoka Mizu FPSO has returned to the Cromarty Firth to complete remediation work on the buoy pull-in system and prepare for the next opportunity to pull in the buoy.
A further announcement will be issued once hook-up has been successfully completed.
