The installation is located in the Brent oilfield in the UK part of the North Sea. According to Shell’s decommissioning proposals, it will leave behind the remains of four platforms in the Brent oil field. Shell estimates three of those platforms contain 640,000 cubic metres of oily water and 40,000 cubic metres of oily sediment with a total content of more than 11,000 tonnes of oil. The lettering "TOXIC WASTE" was applied by Greenpeace activists during a campaign in October 2019.In original language:Brent ÖlfeldDie im Besitz von Maersk befindliche Maersk Forza, ein Unterwasser-Unterstützungsschiff (SSV), passiert die Fundamente der ehemaligen Shell Ölplattform Brent Bravo. Die Anlage befindet sich auf dem Ölfeld Brent im britischen Teil der Nordsee. Nach den Stilllegungsvorschlägen von Shell wird sie die Überreste von vier Plattformen im Brent-Ölfeld zurücklassen. Shell schätzt, dass drei dieser Plattformen 640.000 Kubikmeter ölhaltiges Wasser und 40.000 Kubikmeter ölhaltige Sedimente mit einem Gesamtgehalt von mehr als 11.000 Tonnen Öl enthalten.
