Field and context
The Sillimanite gas field is a cross-border gas reservoir in Carboniferous sandstone situated off the Dutch and UK continental shelves. Discovered in 2015, the field is developed with D12-B and D12-A satellite platforms. Gas is exported via D15-A and onward through the Noordgastransport pipeline system. The field is unitised with government treaty arrangements enabling joint development.
