A full field development of the asset is expected to produce more than 100 million barrels of oil equivalent.
Siccar Point Energy E&P CEO Jonathan Roger said: “As Jackdaw operator Shell has carried out some excellent work in progressing this opportunity. However, with an exciting programme of exploration, appraisal and development activity in our West of Shetland portfolio, we have chosen to focus our resources in this core area and monetise our Jackdaw interest.”
The company acquired the 26% on-operated interest in the field as a result of the takeover of OMV (UK) in January.
The field’s overall structure is divided up into several fault compartments and understood to be a gas/condensate accumulation in Jurassic sandstones.
