Abstract

This paper presents a review of the resources necessary to develop 13 UK offshore oil fields for purposes of obtaining primary recovered oil. An estimate is provided of the increasing energy requirement for a metric ton of North Sea oil due to secondary production methods. Also presented is an estimate of the possible energy requirements should tertiary (i.e. enhanced oil recovery) techniques be undertaken in the North Sea.
