Øyvind Reinertsen, senior vice president of the Johan Sverdrup field
The statement is given due to uncertainty raised in some media today as to whether the Johan Sverdrup field will receive electricity from land.
The project is soon to choose the concept and development solution, covering installations, well solutions, export solutions and a solution for power supply from land based on technical and financial assessments.
“As operator, Statoil will present its recommendations to the licence owners based on studies. Then the licence owners will choose a solution based on regulatory requirements. We will present the chosen solution when the licence owners have made their decision,” says Reinertsen.
