The crude oil assay for Mars has been updated

Equinor has made two new discoveries of gas and condensate in the Sleipner area of the North Sea. These are Equinor’s largest discoveries so far this year and can be developed for the European market through existing infrastructure.

On 2 December production started from the Verdande subsea field in the Norwegian Sea. The field is tied back to the Norne FPSO. With reserves of 36 million barrels of oil, Verdande helps extend Norne’s production beyond 2030.

Equinor and Shell have completed a deal to combine their UK offshore oil and gas operations to form a new company. Adura, which launched today, will be the UK North Sea’s largest independent producer.
