- Production Volume: 550,000 - 650,000 barrels of oil equivalents a day when fully developed
Description
- Johan Sverdrup is among the largest oil fields on the Norwegian shelf, and will at peak contribute with 25% of the production from the Norwegian shelf.
- The giant field is expected to start production in late 2019. The field lifetime will be 50 years, with an anticipated plateau production of 550,000-650,000 barrels of oil equivalent/day (boe/d) field capacity
- The discovery is located in 110 metres of water, the reservoir being situated at a depth of 1900 metres
- The field centre in the first phase comprises a process platform, drilling platform, riser platform and living quarter, and has been designed so as to facilitate future development.
- The installations have steel jackets that are linked by bridges.
- The process platform for refining and producing crude oil will weigh 25,000 tons
- The riser platform for transporting the crude oil extracted from the oil well to the process platform will weigh 21,000 tons
- The oil will be transported to the Mongstad terminal in Hordaland county
- The gas will be transported via Statpipe to Kårstø in Rogaland county for processing and transport onward.
- The development is to be powered from shore by a HVDC link
