Intro
CP is a steel jacket production platform on the West Inde area of the Indefatigable gas field (Block 49/23), installed in 1976. It produces natural gas and condensate from CD wells and exports toward AT and onward to shore.
Field
In the Indefatigable field’s West compartment, CP accesses Rotliegend gas reservoirs developed into a multi-platform system that feeds export infrastructure.
Facilities
CP accommodates wellheads, manifolds, and primary flow control equipment. Gas from producing wells is conditioned and routed via pipelines to AT or central hubs for compression, dehydration, metering, and export to Bacton. Topside systems include basic utilities for flow control, safety shutdown, and remote communications. Power and control links tie CP into the wider network of Inde West platforms. Structural design ensures resilience against North Sea environmental loads and supports integration with subsea umbilicals and export pipelines.
