Intro
Tyra EC is an unmanned satellite fixed platform at the Tyra field in the Danish North Sea that provides wellhead functions for gas and condensate production. Commissioned alongside other Tyra satellites, it lacks standalone processing capability and routes its production to the central Tyra II complex.
Field
The Tyra reservoir is a chalk reservoir in the Danish North Sea, producing gas and condensate from multiple wellhead platforms. Satellite platforms like Tyra EC feed the main hub, which aggregates production from Tyra and nearby smaller fields.
Facilities
Tyra EC’s infrastructure comprises wellheads drilled into the Tyra chalk reservoir and subsea pipelines connecting to the Tyra II hub. All major processing (separation, compression, dehydration) occurs at the central complex. The platform has basic power and control systems for remote operation, with emergency utilities and telemetry links to the hub. Fluids are exported subsea to the hub’s processing trains, then through export lines to shore.
