Intro
A trunk and pressure control platform originally part of the Shell 49/26 BT/BH complex; Perenco also includes BT in 49/27 export network serving multiple upstream installations.
Field
BT operates in the Rotliegendes reservoir domain, collecting gas from adjacent production platforms and routing it toward the Leman A/Bacton export system.
Facilities
BT provides field trunking and pressure control functions. It historically collected gas from platforms (B, C, D, E production jackets) and forwarded it to the main export hub at Leman A via pipelines. BH (bridge-linked quarters) supported BT operations historically but is now redundant; power is provided via subsea cable from BD. BT includes control, metering, and safety systems to manage export.
