The Norwegian Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Terje Aasland, officially opened Johan Sverdrup Phase 2 on 13 February, on board the P2 platform.
“Johan Sverdrup is a major contributor to secure energy supplies to Europe,” he said. “With 90 percent Norwegian content, the project has helped secure many jobs nationwide, and the development has meant a lot to the supply industry in a difficult period,” he added.
The Johan Sverdrup phase 2 project consists of a new platform, five new subsea systems, 28 new wells, a new module for the existing riser platform, and facilities for power to the Utsira High. The project was delivered on time and on budget despite the corona epidemic.
