Intro
Nini A is a fixed steel wellhead platform in the Danish North Sea, part of the Nini satellite system to the Siri field. It produces oil only and was commissioned in 2003 with well fluids routed via pipeline to the Siri SCA host for processing. It has no independent processing facilities but functions as a collecting point for production wells.
Field
The Nini field lies in the Danish sector of the southern North Sea northeast of Siri. It is a sandstone oil reservoir in Blocks 5605/10 and 5605/14, developed as satellite to Siri. The field’s reservoir rock is Eocene/Paleocene sandstone with structural and stratigraphic traps. Production infrastructure consists of satellite platforms tied back to Siri.
Facilities
Nini A comprises multiple production wells drilled from a fixed steel jacket structure. The platform’s primary role is to collect crude from Nini’s reservoir and export multiphase fluids via subsea pipeline to the Siri SCA installation for separation, water handling and export. There are no major processing trains on Nini A itself; separation, gas lift and water injection support is provided from Siri. Connections include subsea pipelines for lift gas and injection water and export lines for oil to Siri. Utility systems are limited to well control, basic power generation for topside systems, and remote communications. The platform is unstaffed and remotely monitored with maintenance support from nearby hubs.
