Intro

CD is a steel jacket drilling platform in the West Inde portion of the Indefatigable field (Block 49/23), installed in 1976. It supports well drilling and completion for the C side of West Inde development, feeding central hubs for production and export.

Field

CD sits within the Rotliegend sandstone Indefatigable gas field, supplying gas to the West Inde cluster tied into export pathways to onshore terminals.

Facilities

CD supports drilling operations and wellhead infrastructure. Produced gas is routed via flowlines to CP or AT for further processing and export. The platform features well control, safety shutdown, and interfaces for subsea umbilicals delivering power and communications. Its jacket supports drilling equipment and provides structural stability. Export pipelines link into the field’s gathering network.
