 +++ Description
 * Goldeneye was the first development to bring gas ashore from the Outer Moray Firth area
-* It utilised a single steel unmanned platform
+* The Goldeneye field was a normal temperature, normal pressure gas condensate field located in blocks 14/28b, 14/29a, 20/3b and 20/4b of the United Kingdom Continental Shelf (UKCS) in the central North Sea, approximately 100km North-East of St. Fergus.
-* Gas from the field reached shore through a 105km pipeline to [[[St Fergus Gas Processing Plants]]]
+* The NUI is a 4-leg steel jacket substructure supporting an integrated topsides deck structure.
-* The field is no longer operational
+* There are 5 platform wells for the Goldeneye Platform, though provision had been made for up to 8.
-* Petrofac and Shell have an agreement to re-development the Goldeneye gas field as a potential CO2 storage facility.
+* The full well stream was transferred to the dedicated Goldeneye onshore facility co-located at the Shell [[St Fergus Gas Processing Plants | St. Fergus gas terminal]].
+* The [[Atlantic and Cromarty Gas and Condensate Fields]] were controlled via the Goldeneye platform by means of an umbilical and associated equipment
