Description
Description TypeTextDate updatedDevelopmentAlbuskjell is a field in the southern part of the Norwegian sector in the North Sea, 20 kilometres west of the Ekofisk field. The water depth is 70 metres. Albuskjell was discovered in 1972. The original plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1975, and production started in 1979. The field was developed with two steel installations. Albuskjell was shut down in 1998, and the platforms were removed in 2013. A PDO for the redevelopment of Albuskjell was approved in 2026. The development concept includes two subsea templates with six wells tied back to the Ekofisk Centre.08.05.2026ReservoirThe reservoirs contain gas and condensate from Maastrichtian and lower Paleocene chalk. The accumulation is located above a salt dome. The main reservoir is in the Upper Cretaceous Tor Formation, at a depth of 3200 metres. The overlying Ekofisk Formation has poorer reservoir quality and has hardly been drained.08.05.2026Recovery strategyThe field will be produced by pressure depletion.08.05.2026TransportThe well stream will be transported via pipeline to the Ekofisk Complex for further export.08.05.2026StatusThe field is under development, and the production is planned to start in 2028.08.05.2026 -
