A SI and Ops Spec. roles had a last-minute meeting this week stating that we're looking at reduction of roles due to NK's lifecycle.
Anyone else catch any more details on this?

@mr Nakika will be Plugged in late 2026 or operated by another company
Shell didn't sell bp NAK. They were 50/50 partners and bp is the Operator. Back in the late 1990's, Amoco at that time did not have the resources to lead the design and build of NAK. Shell agreed to lead the project and bp would be Operator. This was a strange agreement but Shell was the frontiers in deepwater GoA. NAK started up in 2000 and the regulatory end of life of the facility is 2033. BP needs to be cash flow positive to keep producing for as long as possible which means some positions will be phased out over time.
Shell sold us NK. Why would they take it back?
@mr shell
Na Kika. GoM
NK?
It’s offshoring more discipline engineers to TSI as part of the resilient operator framework. Everything is for sale for a price but who would buy NK?
