Brent oilfield - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Situated in the East Shetland Basin, the Brent is the archetype for many of the fields in the area, consisting of a tilted fault block exposing the eponymous Brent formation next to bounding faults which allowed migration from deeper adjacent "kitchen" areas where the Kimmeridge Clay Formation becomes fully mature and releases hydrocarbons. |
 | | The field supplies oil via the Brent System pipeline to the terminal at Sullom Voe, while gas is piped through the FLAGS pipeline ashore at St. |
 | | A fifth installation, the floating Brent E served as a storage and tanker loading buoy and was installed early in the field's construction. |
