Wellbore history
Well 30/6-27 is located a few km west of the Oseberg Field in the Northern North Sea. The main objective of the well was to prove sufficient volumes of oil and/or gas in The Statfjord Formation on the Kappa Nord structure for a joint sub sea development with the Kappa Main and Gamma Vest structures, and to confirm the seismic interpretation.Operations and resultsWildcat well 30/7-26 was spudded with the semi-submersible installation Transocean Arctic on 8 October 2001 and drilled to TD at 3432 m (3378 m TVD RKB) in Late Triassic sediments of the Statfjord Formation. The well was vertical down to the 13 3/8" casing depth, but significant deviation from a vertical well path occurred below this depth. Maximum deviation, 26.6 deg, was recorded at 1946 m and at TD the displacement from the surface location was 287.5 m in an east-northeast direction. The well was drilled with seawater and hi-vis pills down to 1287 m and with Versavert oil based mud from 1287 m to TD.Top reservoir was penetrated at 3101 m, 49 m shallower than prognosed. The uppermost ?25 m of the Statfjord Formation may be missing due to a fault. The well proved two gas columns (respectively 25 m and 4 m) and two oil columns in the Upper Statfjord Formation. Gas-oil-contacts were interpreted at 3145 m (3067 m TVD SS) and 3162 m (3084 m TVD SS). The shallowest oil column had an oil-down-to contact at 3169 m (3091 m TVD SS). The second of these two oil columns was difficult to interpret because no obvious oil and water gradients could be derived from the pressure data. An oil-down-to contact was assumed at 3187 m (3109 m TVD SS), giving an oil column thickness of 25 m. A third oil column (5m) without gas cap was proven in the Lower Statfjord Formation at 3350 - 3355 m (3272 - 3277 m TVD SS).One 27 m core, with 100 % recovery, was cut in the upper Statfjord Formation (3162 - 3189 m). MDT fluid sampling was performed at 3352.5 m (oil), 3202.5 m (water), 3179.5 m (oil showing on OFA), 3162.5 m (oil), 3150.5 m (oil), and 3129 m RKB (gas).The well was permanently abandoned on 30 October 2001 as an oil and gas discovery.TestingNo drill stem test was performed. -

Pressure plots
Pressure plots The pore pressure data is sourced from well logs if no other source is specified. In some wells where pore pressure logs do not exist, information from Drill stem tests and kicks have been used. The data has been reported to the NPD, and further processed and quality controlled by IHS Markit.Pressure plots Document nameDocument formatDocument size [MB]pdf0.22
