Ekofisk

The Norwegian government grants a 20-year license extension for Ekofisk.

Norwegian operator plans to drill 50% more exploration wells in Norway during 2022 than it did in 2021.

A subsea water-treatment system designed to leverage space availability, steady temperatures, lower bacteria levels, and other natural benefits of the seabed environment was successfully installed during pilot testing at the Ekofisk field offshore Norway.

This paper describes the design, testing, installation, and performance of the first fully completed well using an intelligent inner completion inside an uncemented liner with openhole packers for zonal isolation.
