Onshore/Offshore Facilities
Alongside the new subsea awards, Equinor strengthened its position in the 400-million-bbl Bay du Nord development by acquiring BP’s interest in the project.
The events will be co-located 3–5 May 2027 at Reliant Park in Houston, Texas.
The supermajor said the fields are not expected to contribute meaningfully to its production profile by 2030.
