The Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority (Havtil) has granted Aker BP consent to use Hanz.
The consent includes subsea facilities with associated control cables and pipelines.
Hanz is a field in the central part of the North Sea, 12 kilometres north of the Ivar Aasen field. The water depth in the area is 115 metres. Hanz was discovered in 1997 and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2013. The field will be developed with subsea templates tied-back to Ivar Aasen.
The field is under development. Production is planned to start in 2024.
