Sigyn
The Sigyn gas and condensate (light oil) field lies in block 16/7 in the Sleipner area, roughly 12 kilometres south-east of Sleipner Øst, where the water depth is about 70 metres.
This acreage was awarded in 1981. The Sigyn reservoirs were discovered in 1982 and 1997. A field development was approved in August 2001, and came on stream in December 2002.
The Sigyn Øst and Vest structures are produced by two wells, both drilled from the same subsea template.
Wellstreams are carried by two pipelines to Equinor’s Sleipner A platform, which also controls production remotely. The Sigyn license operatorship was transferred from then ExxonMobil, now Point Resources, to us July 1, 2017. The gas is exported via the dry gas system from Sleipner Riser, while the condensate is exported through the dedicated pipeline to Kårstø north of Stavanger.
