THE PETROLEUM ACT 1998
GALAHAD INSTALLATION DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAMME
Perenco Gas (UK) Limited has submitted, for the consideration of the Secretary of State for the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero, a draft Decommissioning Programme for the Galahad installation in accordance with the provisions of the Petroleum Act 1998. It is a requirement of the Act that interested parties be consulted on such decommissioning proposals.
Installation – The Galahad field is located in the Southern Basin of the United Kingdom Continental Shelf, in licence block 48/12a, approximately 76 kilometres (km) from the nearest UK coastline, and approximately 106 km from the UK/Netherlands transboundary line.
Galahad is part of the Lancelot Area Production System (LAPS). Galahad’s wet gas was exported via a 12” flowline PL1666, passing through the Galahad Tee where gas from the Malory field was mixed and went onto the Lancelot subsea isolation valve (SSIV). At the Lancelot SSIV, the Galahad, Malory, and Mordred gas was injected into the 20” LAPS pipeline (PL876) system to the Bacton Gas Terminal.
Galahad stands in 19m water depth and is not located in a Marine Protected Area (MPA). Galahad is located 1.5 km south west of the Summer section of the Southern North Sea Special Area of Conservation (SAC), which is designated for the Harbour porpoise.
The co-ordinates of Galahad Installation ED50 Latitude: 53° 32' 47" North, Longitude: 01° 21' 37" East.
