Overview

Since acquiring its first North Sea interests in 2006 and assuming operatorship of those assets in 2008, TAQA UK has played a significant role in the UK offshore oil and gas industry.

Today, the company’s portfolio puts it at the forefront of late-life operations and decommissioning. In 2022 TAQA UK executed one of the largest infrastructure removal projects in the UK North Sea with the removal of the Brae Bravo platform. Production ceased from its four Northern North Sea platforms in 2024 and from the Brent System Pipeline, which the company had operated since 2008. Production continues at its three Central North Sea platforms, which are expected to cease production by 2027.
