    Development
    Bauge is a field on the Halten bank in the southern Norwegian Sea, 15 kilometres east of the Njord field. The water depth is 280 metres. Bauge was discovered in 2013, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2017. The field is developed with two production wells tied-back to the Njord A facility and a water injection well drilled from the subsea template on the Hyme field. The production started in April 2023.
    12.12.2023
    Reservoir
    The main reservoirs contain oil in Lower and Middle Jurassic sandstone in the Tilje and Ile Formations, at a depth of 2700 metres. They are segmented and have moderate quality.
    12.12.2023
    Recovery strategy
    The field is produced by pressure depletion. Pressure maintenance with water injection is planned to start few years after production start-up.
    19.04.2023
    Transport
    The well stream is transported to the Njord A platform for processing. Produced oil is transported by pipeline to the storage vessel Njord B, and further by tankers to the market. Gas from the field is exported by pipeline via the Åsgard Transport System (ÅTS) and further to the Kårstø terminal.
    19.04.2023
    Status
    The production has been lower than expected.
