=== Summary Information ===
* Operator: BP
* Country: UK 
* Location: West of Shetland
* Production start: Expected 2016
* Partners: TotalEnergies
* Type: Oil / Gas
* Estimated Reserves: 
* Production Volume: 

+++ Description
* The [[Schiehallion Oil Field]] and Loyal fields have produced nearly 400 million barrels of oil since production started in 1998 and an estimated 450 million barrels of resource is still available, more than was originally thought;
* In July 2011 BP and partners announced their intention to invest around £3billion to re-develop the Schiehallion and Loyal fields (the Quad 204 project);
* The investment will go in to new facilities that will enable production to be extended out to 2035 and possibly beyond;
* The project involves replacing the existing Schiehallion Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessel with the [[Glen Lyon FPSO]], which is scheduled to be installed in 2015. The new vessel will be 270 metres long by 52 metres wide and able to process and export up to 130,000 barrels a day of oil, and store in excess of 1 million barrels.
* There will also be a major investment in the upgrading and replacement of the subsea facilities to enable the full development of the reserves.
* The new facilities are scheduled to commence production in 2016.
* To enable the extensive new subsea infrastructure to be installed, the Quad 204 partnership agreed to retire the existing vessel from operation in early 2013. 
* 25 wells will be drilled during Phase 1 between end 2014 and 2020. Several of these wells will be drilled before the start of production in 2016.
* A brand new semi-submersible drilling rig – the Deepsea Aberdeen - is being built and will be dedicated to drilling on the Schiehallion and Loyal fields.
