Spirit Energy boosts Gas Production from Morecambe Fields

16 September 2025

Spirit Energy has completed the latest in a series of activities to boost gas production from its Morecambe hub, investing approximately £20 million to maximise economic recovery from the fields, located in the East Irish Sea. Over the summer, the operations, wells and project teams worked together on a campaign to enhance gas production from the DPPA platform’s production wells, in the North Morecambe field. This involved a series of interventions in the casings of five wells, improving productivity and enabling higher gas rates.

The work reflects Spirit Energy’s strategy to maximise economic recovery of its existing UK gas reserves while preparing to transform the North and South Morecambe fields into the UK’s largest offshore carbon store through its Morecambe Net Zero (MNZ) Peak Cluster project. The project also received a boost in July, with an investment commitment from the National Wealth Fund of £28.6 million.
