Norwegian Continental Shelf

Equinor and its partners’ investment in the Troll West Increased Gas Recovery North (TWIN) project aims to unlock around 11 Bcm of additional natural gas from the Troll field, with first production targeted as early as 2028.

In the fourth development phase, a planned tieback would connect resources from two North Sea discoveries to existing infrastructure at the Johan Sverdrup field, pending project sanction.

Still flowing nearly 40 years after startup, Gullfaks recently delivered its 5,000th cargo of sweet, low-sulfur crude to Sweden, underscoring how Equinor’s aging shelf assets continue to support Europe’s energy supply.

The companies will work together to increase future production and value creation at their respective assets in the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

Equinor generated its first revenue from the Adura joint venture with Shell, formed in late 2025, highlighting strong early cash flow from key UK fields including Mariner and Buzzard.

No injuries were reported, and work has been suspended on the North Sea rig while the BOP is recovered.

Equinor said it found between 14 million and 24 million BOE with its most recent exploration well in the Polynya Tubåen prospect.

Operator started planning the development before it made its latest North Sea discovery.

By simplifying tubing-hanger installation systems, Aker BP shed the complexity tax.

Westwood links 2026 exploration outcomes to policies, with operators offshore Norway finding seven times more resources than those offshore the UK.
