The Lennox Field is a saturated oilfield with a significant primary gas cap at initial conditions. Located in the East Irish Sea withincBlocks 110/14c and 110/15a, the field was discovered in 1992. First oil was achieved in February 1996. Lennox is a rollover anticline structure. The Triassic Ormskirk Sandstone Formation reservoir comprises good-quality aeolian and fluvial sandstones with typicalcporosities of 11–21%. The gas column reaches a height of c. 850 ft and overlays a 143 ft oil column. Oil initially-in-place is estimated to be 202 MMbbl, whilst total gas initially-in-place is 521 bcf. The field has been developed by a wellhead platform tied-back to the neighbouring Douglas Complex. The field development has been split into two phases: the first phase focused on oil production and involved the drilling of 12 horizontal and multilateral production wells and two gas injection wells. Oil production ceased in 2012 with total produced volumes of 103 MMbbl. The second phase comprised the gas cap blowdown, and the optimization of the existing well stock for gas production. Eni UK acquired the operatorship of the field in April 2014 and has focused on maximizing and accelerating gas production from the field.
