UK oil and gas explorer EnCore Oil has announced a new North Sea oil find at its Cladhan field.
Cladhan is located 225 miles north-east of Aberdeen, in 536 feet water depth. It is thought that the field may hold reserves of between 100 million and 200 million barrels.
The Cladhan announcement follows the discovery of the 300 million barrel Catcher field, which was identified in June and in which EnCore also has a stake.
EnCore, which started drilling at the Cladhan site in August, will now drill horizontally to determine the size of the field.
