Offshore/subsea systems
The $5.1 billion ultradeepwater project is Angola’s first integrated cross-block development and sits at the top of Azule’s Southern African portfolio.
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.
