• The development concept includes a process facility with living quarters, Hugin A, and a normally unmanned facility at Frøy, Hugin B, as well as subsea templates tied-back to Hugin A. Hugin A will be the field centre for the Yggdrasil area.
• The gas will be exported through a pipeline from Hugin A to Statpipe and the Kårstø terminal.
• The oil will be exported through pipeline from Hugin A to the Grane oil pipeline and further to the Sture terminal.

Geology

• The reservoirs contain oil and gas in sandstone mainly of Eocene age in the Frigg Formation and of Middle Jurassic age in the Hugin Formation, at depths of 1900 and 3500 metres, respectively. The Hugin area is geologically complex, and the deposits have varying reservoir and fluid properties.
