Description
- Alve lies in production licence 159B, about 16 kilometres south-west of Norne. The field embraces the Garn, Not Ile and Tilje formations. The proven reserves lie in Garn and Not.
- The quality of the reservoir at Alve is such that one well ensures good production. Expected maximum gas production is roughly four million cubic metres of gas per day.
- Recoverable reserves are estimated to be 6,78 billion cubic metres of gas and 8.3 million barrels of condensate
- Production is delivered from the Alve field to the FPSO on the Norne Oil Field
Contractors
- **Acergy:** Installation of a 16 kilometres well control umbilical, a production riser, DEH feeder cable, template, spool and associated structures, together with tie-in work
- **Technip and Subsea 7:** project management, engineering, procurement, installation, installation support and pre-commissioning of a rigid production flowline
- **Aker Kvaerner:** Modification of Norne Topsides
