Today, first oil has begun to flow from the Shaw field, part of the major redevelopment of the Montrose Area in the Central North Sea operated by Repsol Sinopec Resources UK, the joint venture between Repsol SA and Addax Petroleum UK Limited.

The Montrose Area Redevelopment (MAR) is a major capital project that significantly enhances the long term Montrose Area infrastructure. The project incorporates the development of three new fields - Godwin, Cayley and Shaw - and a new bridge-linked production platform (BLP) connected to the Montrose Alpha to provide additional process and plant support facilities.
