The Deep Panuke production platform

The jack-up production platform Deep Panuke was delivered to the field in 2011 by SBM Offshore as part of Deep Panuke gas development operated by Encana.

Natural gas from the field, located offshore about 250 km southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia, around 47 km west of Sable Island in  44 meters of water, was processed offshore and transported via a subsea pipeline to shore near Goldboro, Nova Scotia for further transport to markets using the Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline.

Production from Deep Panuke permanently stopped on May 7, 2018, and the Deep Panuke platform was safely de-installed from the offshore field in July 2020.
