Thorne & Derrick have supplied 400 Ellis Patents Emperor Cable Cleats to the CNR operated North Sea Murchison Oil Field. 

The CNR International owned and operated Murchison field is located in the Northern North Sea Block 211/19, north of Aberdeen in the East Shetland Basin, straddling the United Kingdom/Norwegian sector median line. The Murchison platform is a conventional steel jacket with a 33 well slot capacity.

Oil off-take is to Sullom Voe and gas is exported into the FLAGS line (Far North Liquids and Gas System). The 100% owned and operated Playfair field to the north of Murchison produces back to the Murchison Platform via an extended reach well.
