39 The Statfjord Agreement dwarfed the other two in economic importance, as it concerned one of the largest oil fields in the North Sea, with total initial reserves of Tampen contains a number of fields, including Statfjord, Snorre, Gullfaks,. Visund , Vigdis and Tordis. Several of these rank among Norway's largest oil fields. Oil from the Statfjord field The Statfjord field has three condeep concrete production platforms , A, B and C. Each platform is made up of approximately 250,000 tonnes of concrete with 40,000 tonnes of top-side processing and accommodation facilities. Statfjord is a field in the Tampen area in the northern part of the North Sea, on the border between the Norwegian and UK sectors. The Norwegian share of the field is 85.47 per cent. The water depth is 150 metres. Statfjord was discovered in 1974, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1976.
Statfjord is a world-class oil and gas field that has supplied the world with huge amounts of energy. The field has created high value and been a cornerstone in the development of the entire Norwegian petroleum industry. It is therefore a pleasure to see that we, together with our partners in the area, can extend the production period and continue the value creation.” Fig. 1 shows the field location and layout. The Statfjord field averages 4 km wide and 24 km long and consists of four reservoirs: the Upper and Lower Brent, Dunlin, and Statfjord. The main recoverable reserves (˜75%) are in the Upper and Lower Brent, 24% are in the Statfjord reservoir, and 1 % in the Dunlin reservoir. Both the Brent and Statfjord have exceptionally good reservoir characteristics and contain highly undersaturated, low-sulfur crude oil. Estimated oil in place is 1024×10 The giant Statfjord oil and gas field is located in the Tampen area, immediately to the north of the UK Brent field. Statfjord straddles the UK/Norway median line, and has been unitised between the countries. The field has been developed using three large concrete platforms. The Statfjord Late Life (SLL) project was completed in 2017 to extend
Since production started in 1971, oil and gas have been produced from a total of 106 fields on the Norwegian shelf. At the end of 2018, 83 fields were in production: 63 in the North Sea, 18 in the Norwegian Sea and 2 in the Barents Sea. One new field started producing in 2018, Aasta Hansteen, while a further 14 were still under development
Statfjord East satellite started production in September 1994. It was developed with three subsea templates integrating four well slots each. Recoverable reserves of the satellite field are estimated at 257 million barrels of crude oil and 141 billion cubic feet of gas. Norway’s share in the field further increased to 85.23% in 1994. 1995-9 Statfjord is a world-class oil and gas field that has supplied the world with huge amounts of energy. The field has created high value and been a cornerstone in the development of the entire Norwegian petroleum industry. Originally, the partnership hoped to recover 40% of the oil in the Statfjord field. The outcome so far is a record 66%. The global average for oil fields is 35%. The goal is to recover 74% of the gas from Statfjord. Since production started in 1971, oil and gas have been produced from a total of 106 fields on the Norwegian shelf. At the end of 2018, 83 fields were in production: 63 in the North Sea, 18 in the Norwegian Sea and 2 in the Barents Sea. One new field started producing in 2018, Aasta Hansteen, while a further 14 were still under development Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic Statfjord formation; Middle Jurassic, Oseberg, Rannoch, Etive, Ness and Tarbert formations. Oseberg (Norwegian: Osebergfeltet) is an offshore oil field with a gas cap in the North Sea located 140 km (87 mi) northwest of the city of Bergen on the southwestern coast of Norway.

The Statfjord Field, the largest oil field in the Northern North Sea, straddles the Norway/UK boundary and is located on the southwestern part of the Tampen Spur within the East Shetland Basin. The accumulation is trapped in a 6-8° W-NW dipping rotated fault block comprised of Jurassic-Triassic strata sealed by Middle to Upper Jurassic and Cretaceous shales Reserves are located in three
The Statfjord A platform began production in 1979. The Statfjord B platform followed in 1982 and Platform C in 1985. Oil is transported from the field via tankers. 13 Jan 2020 Equinor ASA EQNR recently announced its plans to ramp up productivity from its Statfjord oilfield comprising Statfjord A, B and C production 10 Jan 2020 Equinor and its partners to extend production life of the Statfjord field The Norwegian oil and gas company said that a new business plan in 9 Jan 2020 In order to strengthen the Statfjord field, the operations will be reorganised, the combination of Centrica's Exploration & Production business and major discovery West of Shetland; 11/06/2018 - Spirit Energy: Oil discovery 13 Jan 2020 Equinor Scraps Decommissioning Plan at Statfjord Oilfield from its Statfjord oilfield comprising Statfjord A, B and C production platforms. 13 Jan 2020 Equinor ASA EQNR recently announced its plans to ramp up productivity from its Statfjord oilfield comprising Statfjord A, B and C production
