Edit page New page Hide edit links Statoil has received consent to drill an exploration well on the Gina Krog field in the North Sea. Exploration well 15/6-14 S, which Statoil has now received consent from Petroleum Safety Authority Norway to drill, is to be drilled as a sidetrack from existing well 15/6-B-2. Gina Krog – an oil and gas field located 250 kilometres west of Stavanger and 30 kilometres north-west of the Sleipner A facility in the North Sea – came on stream in 2017. The drilling location's geographical coordinates:
Water depth at the site is 116 metres. Drilling is estimated to last 17 days in the event of a dry well and 25 days in the event of a discovery, and will start in September. The well is to be drilled by the Maersk Integrator mobile drilling facility. Maersk Integrator is a jack-up drilling facility, delivered by the Keppel Shipyard in Singapore in 2014. The facility will be operated by Maersk Drilling Norge AS. |
