    Development
    Hugin is a field in the Yggdrasil area in the central North Sea, 20 kilometres east of the Frigg field. The water depth is 120 metres. Hugin consists of Frigg Gamma Delta and Øst Frigg. Frigg Gamma was discovered in 1986 while Øst Frigg was discovered in 1973 and has previously been in production. The plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2023. This plan included the development of Frigg Gamma Delta, Rind and Langfjellet, as well as the redevelopment of the shut-down Frøy field. Subsequent horizontal exploration wells drilled in the lower parts of the shut-down fields, Øst Frigg and Frigg, demonstrated a continuous oil column with Frigg Gamma Delta. These resources are included in Hugin. As a result, Rind (Lille Frøy), Langfjellet and Frøy were in 2026 separated from Hugin and established as the field Hugin Satellites. The development concept includes a processing facility with living quarters, Hugin A, which will serve as the field centre for the Yggdrasil area. Øst Frigg will be developed with a subsea template tied back to Hugin A.
    20.02.2026
    Reservoir
    The reservoirs contain oil and gas in sandstone mainly of Eocene age in the Frigg Formation at a depth of 1900 metres. The Hugin reservoirs have very good reservoir and fluid properties, with a complex distribution between gas and thin oil columns.
    20.02.2026
    Recovery strategy
    Hugin will be produced with pressure depletion, and the produced water is planned to be reinjected into the water zone. The wells are designed for gas lift.
    20.02.2026
    Transport
    The gas will be exported through a pipeline from Hugin A to Statpipe and the Kårstø terminal. The oil will be exported through pipeline from Hugin A to the Grane oil pipeline and further to the Sture terminal.
    23.08.2023
    Status
    The field is under development. The development of Hugin is coordinated with the development of the Hugin Satellites, Fulla and Munin fields in the Yggdrasil area. The production is planned to start in 2027. Nearby prospects may be tested in a later drilling campaign and produced through remaining well slots.
