    Development
    Tor is a field in the southern part of the Norwegian sector in the North Sea, 13 kilometres northeast of the Ekofisk field. The water depth is 70 metres. Tor was discovered in 1970, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1973. The field started production in 1978 and was shut down in 2015. A new PDO for the redevelopment of Tor was approved in 2019. The development includes two subsea templates with eight horizontal production wells, tied-back to the Ekofisk Centre. The production started again in 2020.
    14.12.2023
    Reservoir
    The reservoir contains oil and gas in fractured chalk of Late Cretaceous age in the Tor Formation and of early Paleocene age in the Ekofisk Formation. There are significant remaining resources in both formations. The reservoir depth is 3200 metres.
    14.12.2023
    Recovery strategy
    The field is produced by natural pressure depletion.
    28.02.2023
    Transport
    The well stream is transported by pipeline to the processing facility at the Ekofisk Centre and further to Teesside in the UK and Emden in Germany.
    28.02.2023
    Status
    Several well interventions have been conducted in 2022/2023 to maintain and improve well performance. The original facility will be removed by the end of 2024.
