Set to be renamed Dvalin, the field consists of two reservoirs with combined resources of 18.5 billion cubic metres of gas. Operator Dea and partners Edison, OMV and Maersk Oil aim to spend Nkr10 billion ($1.2 billion) to tie the field back to the Heidrun platform, with production start in the second half of 2020.
The development plan is set to be handed in to the authorities before 3 October, Dea project director Lars Moe told Upstream at the ONS conference in Stavanger.
