Field and context
The Buzzard oil field, discovered in 2001 and producing since 2007, is one of the largest oil fields in UK waters. It produces medium sour crude and associated gas from Upper Jurassic sandstone reservoirs and includes multiple integrated platforms handling drilling, processing, sweetening and support functions.
