Pegasus project approval on ice3 Jul 2020 08:43
Mark Fotheringham, oil and gas projects and engineering director, said Spirit’s intent was still to grow and mature, though some capex has been deferred due to the commodity price slump and Covid-19 outbreak.
Mr Fotheringham said Spirit had been “heading for” a final investment decision (FID) on the Pegasus project in the Southern Gas Basin in 2020, but has now put project approval on ice.
The company attributed the delay at Pegasus to “operational reasons”. Spirit had hoped to use the Cygnus platform as the host for Pegasus, but clashed with operator Neptune over capacity.
