`Goldeneye' Design Contract Awarded to Parsons.Business Editors & Energy Writers HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 10, 2000 Shell U.K. Exploration and Production awarded Parsons Energy & Chemicals Group a design engineering contract to develop preliminary plans for new inlet New Inlet was an inlet along the Outer Banks of North Carolina joining the Pamlico Sound with the Atlantic Ocean. It has not existed since 1933. History New Inlet first opened around 1738, separating Bodie Island from Hatteras Island. , receiving and separation facilities at the St. Fergus St Fergus is a village in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, formerly in the county of Banffshire. St Fergus lies a mile from the North Sea coast and 3 miles north west of Peterhead St. gas terminal in northeast Scotland. The studies will examine possible development of gas-condensate from the South Halibut halibut: see flatfish. halibut Any of various flatfishes, especially the Atlantic and Pacific halibuts (genus Hippoglossus, family Pleuronectidae), both of which have eyes and colour on the right side. Basin area of the Outer Moray Firth Moray Firth Inlet of the North Sea, northeastern Scotland. It extends inland for 39 mi (63 km) and is 16 mi (29 km) wide at its widest point.

Production is anticipated to begin in 2004 at the earliest. One option being considered is to send the unprocessed fluids from Goldeneye to St. Fergus through a new pipeline, and process these at the inlet facilities at the terminal. The contract award continues Parsons' long and successful record of project achievements for Shell at the St. Fergus terminal. "This project is significant to Parsons since it helps us maintain our key position in the design of U.K. gas terminals, and it reinforces our relationship with Shell as a major Parsons client," commented Michael G. Mower, Parsons senior vice president for Oil & Gas.
