Kraken on track for first oil in June

EnQuest has reported that Kraken remains on track for first oil before the end of June 2017. Drilling is now complete at the first two drilling centres (DC1 and DC2), the rig is currently at DC3. Drilling performance to date has de-risked delivery of the project to and beyond first oil.  At start up, 7 producers and 6 injectors will be in place. Handover of FPSO systems from commissioning to operations continues and the wells will be brought onstream in a phased manner in June. EnQuest emphasises that the project continues to be under budget and on schedule.
