The vessel is to be deployed in the Perth field development in block 15/21a of the UK Continental Shelf.
The FPSO and its processing capabilities will be designed to accommodate the several phases of development drilling planned for the Perth field.
It will also have extra capacity to handle the anticipated tiebacks from third-party stranded fields nearby.
