L13-FI

L13-FI-1 is a fixed unmanned monotower gas platform in Block L13 of the Dutch North Sea, commissioned in 2017. It produces natural gas and supports chemical injection facilities. Produced gas is exported via a 12- pipeline to the K15-FA-1 complex. Communication and control are linked to nearby platforms.

Field

The L13-FI field lies in Block L13 offshore the Netherlands in shallow water, producing conventional gas from Rotliegendes reservoirs as part of the broader L13 gas development.

Facilities

L13-FI-1's infrastructure is based on a monotower design with a single deck and monopile foundation. It includes production wells and chemical injection skids to support flow assurance. Produced gas is routed through a 12- export pipeline to the K15-FA-1 processing hub. A piggyback line facilitates import of production chemicals. Electrical power generation and remote control systems support SCADA, safety shutdown and communications. Utilities include instruments and monitoring systems tailored for unmanned operation. The design emphasizes compactness and ease of installation, interfacing with existing IntraField infrastructure to export gas efficiently. Periodic service vessel visits ensure topside and subsea asset integrity and maintenance.
