  • West Coast, Ireland
    West Coast, Ireland (Slyne Head to Erris Head) GPS Coordinates of location: Latitude: From 53° 23’ 58.02”N to 54° 18’ 26.96”N Longitude: From 010° 13” 59.87”W to 009° 59’ 51.98”W Degrees Minutes Seconds (e.g. 35 08 34.231212) as used by all emergency marine services Description of geographic area covered: The region covered is the wild and remote west coast of Ireland, from Slyne Head north of Galway to Erris Head south of Sligo. It includes Killary Harbour, Clew Bay, Black Sod Bay, Belmullet, and the islands of Inishbofin, Inishturk, Clare, Achill, and the Inishkeas. It is an area of incomparable charm and natural beauty where mountains come down to the sea unspoilt by development. It is also an area without marinas, or easy access to marine services. Self-sufficiency is absolutely necessary, along with careful navigation around a rocky lee coastline in prevailing westerlies. A vigilant watch for approach of frequent Atlantic gales must be kept. Inishbofin is reported to be the most common stopover of visiting foreign-flagged yachts in Ireland, of which there are very few on the West coast. Best time to visit is May-September. 1 24 May 2015 Port officer’s name: Services available in area covered: Daria & Alex Blackwell • There are no marinas in the west of Ireland between Galway and Killybegs in Donegal, so services remain difficult to access. Haul out facilities are now available in Kilrush on the Shannon River and elsewhere by special arrangement with crane operators. • Visitor Moorings (Yellow buoy, 15 tons): Achill / Kildavnet Pier, Achill Bridge, Blacksod, Clare Island, Inishturk, Rosmoney (Clew Bay), Leenane.

    Shell E&P Ireland Ltd Offshore Supplementary Update Report 3 CONSTRUCTION 3.1 Construction Methods and Sequence The Construction Strategy for the offshore field and pipeline is described in the 2001 Offshore EIS. Some construction activities have taken place since 2001, including the installation of the export pipeline from the Corrib Field to the landfall at Glengad, however there are still a number of outstanding activities to be completed. Installation of the pipeline commenced in 2008 using methods described in the 2001 Offshore EIS. Further details of installation methods for a number of components yet to be installed are now available and are described below, along with an updated schedule. 3.2 Construction Sequence Activities carried out since 2001 on the offshore pipeline route, including the landfall, include the following: • 2002: Glengad Headland landfall site: Most of the topsoil stripping (approximately 80%) undertaken, to a distance of 50m landward of the cliff. A section of the cliff was cut to access the beach and intertidal zone. Following suspension of construction work, the landfall site and the cliff were reinstated. Nearshore and intertidal trench Broadhaven Bay: Intertidal causeway was constructed. Part of the trench was excavated and subsequently reinstated using the extracted rock and sand. Causeway was removed. • 2005: Glengad Headland: Temporary construction site established. Following suspension of works the area was reinstated. Nearshore Trench: The outer reinstated section of the near-shore trench was excavated and later backfilled. • 2006 – 2008: Corrib Field: Wells completed and Christmas trees installed, new wells drilled, well protection structures and infield flowlines installed, pipeline manifold protection structure installed.
