    Development
    Verdande is a field in the Norwegian Sea, 10 kilometres north of the Norne field. The water depth is 380 metres. Verdande was discovered in 2017, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2023. The development concept includes a subsea template with three production wells tied-back to the Norne floating production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO).
    18.01.2025
    Reservoir
    The reservoir contains oil and gas in sandstone of Early Cretaceous age in the Lange Formation. It is at a depth of about 3000 metres and has good quality.
    09.12.2023
    Recovery strategy
    The field is produced by pressure depletion.
    05.12.2025
    Transport
    The gas is exported via the Åsgard Transport System (ÅTS) to the terminal at Kårstø. Oil and condensate is offloaded from the Norne FPSO to shuttle tankers.
