General information

General information
Attribute	Value
Wellbore name Official name of wellbore based on Norwegian Offshore Directorate guidelines for designation of wells and wellbores.	30/9-B-8
Type Wellbore type. Legal values: EXPLORATION, DEVELOPMENT, OTHER (see 'Purpose' for more information)	DEVELOPMENT
Purpose Final classification of the wellbore. Legal values for exploration wellbores: WILDCAT, APPRAISAL, WILDCAT-CCS, APPRAISAL-CCS. Legal values for development wellbores: OBSERVATION, PRODUCTION, INJECTION, INJECTION-CCS, OBSERVATION-CCS. Legal values for other wellbores: SOIL DRILLING (drilling in connection with track surveys and other subsurface surveys to investigate the soil conditions prior to placement of facilities), SHALLOW GAS (drilling to investigate shallow gas before the first 'real' drilling on the location), PILOT (drilling to investigate the geology and fluid connectors for location of the main wellbore), SCIENTIFIC (drilling according to Law of Scientific research and exploration), STRATIGRAPHIC (driling according to Law of Petroleum activities §2-1).	INJECTION
Status Status for the wellbore. Legal values are: BLOWOUT: A blowout has occurred in the well. CLOSED: A development wellbore that has been closed in a shorter or longer periode. Also applies to development wellbores where drilling is completed, but production/injection has not yet been reported. DRILLING: The well is in the drilling phase - can be active drilling, logging, testing or plugging, JUNKED: The drilling operation has been terminated due to technical problems. P&A: Exploration: The well is plugged and abandoned, and can not be reentered for further use. Development wells: The production/injection from/to the well is stopped and the well is plugged. The wellhead is removed or else made unavailable for further well operations. PLUGGED: The wellbore has been plugged, but the upper parts of the wellbore can be re-used. A sidetrack might be drilled at a later stage. PRODUCING: It was produced from the wellbore at the time of the operators last monthly report to the Norwegian Offshore Directorate. INJECTING: It was injected to the wellbore at the time of the operators last monthly report to the Norwegian Offshore Directorate. PREDRILLED: The upper part of the well has been drilled, usually as part of a batch-drilling campaign covering several wellbores. RE-CLASS TO DEV: Exploration wellbore that is reclassified to a development wellbore. RE-CLASS TO TEST: Exploration wellbore that is reclassified to test production. SUSPENDED: The drilling operation in the wellbore has been temporarily stopped. The current plan is to continue drilling later on.	INJECTING
Multilateral Indicator telling if the parent well is multilateral, meaning it has more than one branch radiating from the main borehole. Example of legal values: YES, NO. See also Norwegian Offshore Directorate guidelines for designation of wells and wellbores.	NO

Main area Name of the area on the Norwegian Continental Shelf where the wellbore is located. Legal values: BARENTS SEA, NORWEGIAN SEA, NORTH SEA.	NORTH SEA
Field Name of the field the wellbore is related to.	OSEBERG
Discovery Name of the discovery the wellbore is related to.	30/6-1 Oseberg
Well name Official name of the parent well for the wellbore based on Norwegian Offshore Directorate guidelines for designation of wells and wellbores.	30/9-B-8
Production licence Official designation of the production licence the wellbore was drilled or planned to be drilled from ( well head posistion).	079
Drilling operator Name of the licensee starting the drilling operation on behalf of the active production license (well head position). This will usually equal the operator of the production license.	Norsk Hydro Produksjon AS
Drill permit The drilling permit number together with the version of the drilling permit as stated in the drilling permit granted by the Norwegian Offshore Directorate.	626-P
Drilling facility Norwegian Offshore Directorate's name of the facility which the wellbore was drilled from.	OSEBERG B
Production facility The Norwegian Offshore Directorate's name for the production facility, for development wells.	OSEBERG B
Drilling days Number of days from wellbore entry to wellbore completion.	37
Entered date The date when he wellbore was spudded. For sidetracks: The date when new formation was drilled by kicking off from the mother-wellbore,	04.02.1991
Completed date Exploration wellbores from moveable facilities: For floating facilities - date when anchor handling is started. For jackups - date the jacking-down started. Exploration wellbores from fixed facilities and all development wellbores: Date when the wellbore is at total depth, and last casing, liner or screen is set. In case of immediate plugging of the wellbore, completed date equals the date the last plug i set in the wellbore. Date when the wellbore is at total depth, and last casing, liner or screen is set. In case of immediate plugging of the wellbore, completed date equals the date the last plug i set in the wellbore.	04.04.1991
Release date Date when raw data which has been reported to the authorities from the wellbore is not confidential any longer. Normally 2 years after finishing the drilling. May be earlier if the area of the production license is relinquished.	04.04.1993
Purpose - planned Pre-drill purpose of the wellbore. Legal values for exploration wellbores: WILDCAT, APPRAISAL, WILDCAT-CCS, APPRAISAL-CCS. Example of legal values for development wellbores: OBSERVATION, PRODUCTION, INJECTION.	INJECTION
Content For exploration wellbores, status of discovery. Legal values: DRY, SHOWS (trace amounts of hydrocarbons), GAS, GAS/CONDENSATE, OIL or OIL/GAS. SHOWS (GAS SHOWS, OIL SHOWS or OIL/GAS SHOWS) are detected as fluorescent cut (organic extract), petroleum odour, or visual stain on cuttings or cores, or as increased gas reading on the mud-loggers gas detection equipment. Legal values for WILDCAT-CCS and APPRAISAL-CCS: WATER For development wellbores, type of produced/injected fluid. Legal values: WATER, CUTTINGS, NOT AVAILABLE, OIL, GAS/CONDENSATE, OIL/GAS, CO2, GAS, WATER/GAS, NOT APPLICABLE.	GAS
Discovery wellbore Indicator which tells if the wellbore made a new discovery. Legal values: YES, NO. Prior to press-release or other information regarding drilling results, the indicator will be “NO” as a default.	NO
