Oil and gas discovery in North Sea

Tuesday, September 24 2024

Fossil Energy – Discovery

Equinor and its partner DNO have discovered oil and gas in the northern part of the North Sea.

Wildcat well (35/10-13 S) was drilled in production licence 827 SB from the Awards in predefined areas (APA) in 2022. The well was drilled using the Deepsea Atlantic rig.

The primary objective of the drilling was in the Angel prospect. Preliminary estimates indicate the discovery is between 0.1-0.5 million Sm3 of recoverable oil equivalent, which is not profitable given current price assumptions.

Another objective for the well was to delineate the 35/10-9 (Heisenberg) discovery. Here, oil was proven, confirming the discovery size of 3.8-8.9 million standard cubic metres of recoverable oil, corresponding to 24-56 million barrels.
