According to a statement from the Norwegian Offshore Directorate, the joint venture between Harbour Energy, Aker BP, and Sval Energi confirmed a natural gas discovery in well 15/9-25 in the North Sea. The Directorate reported that the discovery has been proven in two other exploration wells previously. First gas was proven in 1982 and 2011 in wells 16/7-2 and 16/7-10. Awarded in 2021, 15/9-25 is the first well in production license 1138. The overall gas volume is estimated between 1 and 3 million standard cubic meters of oil equivalent (MMcmoe).
The Harbour Energy-led joint venture is now considering the feasibility of tying the confirmed gas discovery into existing nearby infrastructure.
