Summary Information
- Operator: AkerBP
- Country: Norway
- Location: Norwegian Sea
- Production start: 2020
- Partners: Equinor, Wintershall, PGNIG
- Type: Oil / Gas
- Estimated Reserves: The reservoir holds a total of around 300 million barrels of producible oil equivalent
- Production Volume:
Description
- The Ærfugl reservoir (formerly called Snadd) was discovered in 2000 and is located just west of Skarv
- The Ærfugl development is a major subsea project in two phases. Six horizontal gas wells are tied into the existing production vessel (FPSO) on the Skarv field
- The field consists of subsea installations and is enabled by two new technologies in particular:
- More efficient reservoir drainage through new vertical X-mas trees.
- Long-distance, electrically heated flow lines to avoid hydrates in the gas pipelines. This technology significantly improves heat efficiency compared with regular technology and enables longer tie-backs.
Contractors
- Subsea 7
- EPCI contract for an Electrically Heat Traced Flowline (EHTF) for the 21 km tie-back to the Skarv FPSO
History
- 2017 - Subsea 7 awarded EPCI contract for phase II
- 2020 - First production from phase I
- 2021 - First production from phase II
Geology
- The reservoir is located 2,800 meters below the seabed. There is gas in the reservoir, but some oil will also precipitate when it is produced up to atmospheric pressure.
