Nov 14, 2016
To mark the 40th anniversary of first production from the mighty Brent Field, Shell commissioned the Aberdeen Press and Journal to produce a special 16-page commemorative supplement.
This special supplement shares an article with Paul Goodfellow, VP for Upstream UK and Ireland and Duncan Manning, Brent Asset Manager, along with memories from people who have worked on Brent over the decades.
You will be able to view a timeline of historic moments in the Brent Field. These reflect on many of the defining moments and record breaking times of Brent.
Finally, the supplement is made up of original articles and advertising dating back to Brent’s first production. This was published by the Press and Journal in 1976.
