     <p>Work in the well on Statoil’s Snorre A platform in the North Sea which began leaking gas on 28 November will be continuing over the coming week.</p> 
     <p>“We’ve still got some downhole jobs to do,” says Øivind Reinertsen, senior vice president for the Tampen area in Exploration &amp; Production Norway.</p> 
     <p>“Apart from pulling out the remainder of the casing, we need to set and test plugs in the well.</p> 
     <p>“If everything goes as planned and we don’t experience any unexpected delays, it should be possible to resume production from Snorre A and its Vigdis satellite before the end of the year.”</p> 
     <p>Apart from the downhole activity, inspection work continues on the subsea template to verify its technical condition.</p> 
     <p>Statoil will provide more information about production start-up when it is due to begin.</p>
