OKEA and its partners have discovered petroleum in the ‘Knockando Fensfjord’ prospect in the North Sea.
The well was drilled from the Brage installation, and the discovery was made in connection with drilling a development well for oil (31/4-A-15 D) in production licence 055.
Preliminary estimates indicate additional resources for Brage of between 0.5 and 1.5 million standard cubic metres (Sm3) of recoverable oil equivalent (o.e.) if the discovery is oil. If it is gas, the preliminary volume estimate is between 0.4 and 0.9 million Sm3 of o.e.
Wellbore 31/4-A-15 D started producing from the 31/4-A-1 B discovery on 11 January 2026. The licensees are now considering opportunities for developing ‘Knockando Fensfjord’.
