Oil major Total said it has started production at its Edradour and Glenlivet gas and condensate fields in the U.K., which is expected to boost its North Sea output with an additional 56,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day.
“We have completed this project ahead of schedule and 30 percent under the initial budget,” Arnaud Breuillac, Total’s president for exploration and production, said in a statement.
The Edradour and Glenlivet development is near the French oil and gas giant’s existing Laggan-Tormore fields which started production in February 2016.
Total’s U.K. unit operates Edradour and Glenlivet with a 60% interest, alongside partners DONG E&P and SSE E&P which each have 20% stakes.
