Oseberg satellites pump up production



By Upstream staff 

StatoilHydro has brought two Oseberg satellites, the Oseberg Delta and the Oseberg Cook, on stream, adding around 18,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day to production.

Another deposit in the Oseberg area, Oseberg Gamma Main Statfjord, also came on stream recently. In total, the satellites have added around 35,000 bpoed to the Oseberg area.

When well number two on Oseberg Delta comes on line in the autumn, another 7,000 boepd will be added.

Theta Cook is located in the north western part of the Oseberg field, and is drilled through a long-reach well from the Oseberg C platform.

Oseberg Delta was discovered ten years ago in the western part of the Oseberg area.
