Last week oil and gas production started at Smørbukk North, a satellite to the Åsgard field in the Norwegian Sea. Utilising existing Åsgard infrastructure is a win-win situation.     It means that Smørbukk North has low development costs and profitable production with low CO2 emissions. It also means that Åsgard has an extended lifespan.     Now that Smørbukk North is in production, Åsgard's future looks even brighter, characterized by high activity and viable development. The Åsgard field consists of several installations in the Norwegian Sea and the Åsgard Transport gas pipeline that exports gas to European customers.    The ripple effects from the Åsgard field in Norway are notable – including field purchases that create a value of NOK 3-5 billion/year with over 95% coming from Norwegian suppliers.     The Smørbukk North licence partners are Petoro, Vår Energi and TotalEnergies.

Well done to everyone involved in bringing Smørbukk North into production. Making the most of the Åsgard infrastructure is such a clever way to keep costs and emissions down while extending the field’s life. Love seeing the positive impact it’s having on Norwegian suppliers and the local economy. Great work!
