Equinor, along with its partners, has decided to make a Nkr12bn ($1.13bn) investment in the North Sea Troll gas field to further increase production. <\/p>\n
The investment will be used to further develop the field infrastructure to ensure that high gas export levels from the Troll and Kollsnes value chain are maintained up to 2030. <\/p>\n
As per the plan, the second stage of the Troll Phase 3 project will involve the drilling of eight new wells from two new templates, with subsea controls extended from existing templates. <\/p>\n
The first wells from this initiative are expected to commence production by the end of 2026. <\/p>\n
Additionally, a new gas flowline will be laid as a tie-back to the Troll A platform, which will also undergo modification work. <\/p>\n
The infrastructure enhancement is expected to fast-track production equivalent to approximately 55 billion standard cubic metres of gas. <\/p>\n

At the peak of its performance, the annual output from the new development is projected to be around seven billion cubic metres of gas. <\/p>\n
The initial stage of gas production from the Troll West gas province, which commenced in 2021, included eight wells, a new pipeline to the Troll A platform and a new inlet module, extending plateau production by five to seven years. <\/p>\n
The upcoming stage two is expected to further prolong plateau production by around four years and mitigate the production decline over the subsequent ten to 12 years. <\/p>\n
Recent upgrades at the Kollsnes processing plant have led to an increase in the plateau production of Troll gas, Equinor said. <\/p>\n
The maximum production capacity, previously at 121 million standard cubic metres per day, has now risen to 129 million standard cubic metres per day. <\/p>\n
The new wells are set to contribute approximately 20 million standard cubic metres of gas per day. <\/p>\n
Once processed at Kollsnes, the gas is transported via the Zeepipe pipelines to various receiving terminals across Europe. <\/p>\n
Equinor executive vice-president of projects, drilling & procurement Geir Tungesvik said: This is a highly profitable project that will secure high gas production from the Troll field. The partnerships decision is important in order for us to fully utilise the capacity of existing infrastructure. <\/p>\n
Equinor, as the operator, holds a 30.58% stake in the field, with partners Petoro at 56%, Shell at 8.10%, TotalEnergies EP Norge at 3.69% and ConocoPhillips Skandinavia at 1.62%. <\/p>\n
Earlier in the week, Equinor reported a new oil discovery at the Svalin field in the Norwegian North Sea. <\/p>\n
