Second Appraisal Well Moves Bergknapp/Åre Closer to Development
Oslo, 13 December 2023 – DNO ASA, the Norwegian oil and gas
operator, today announced successful completion of the second
appraisal well on the Bergknapp/Åre discoveries in license PL836S
in the Norwegian Sea. Recoverable volumes are currently estimated
by the operator to range between 50 and 100 million barrels of oil
equivalent (MMboe).
Bergknapp/Åre are located eight kilometers west of the
Wintershall Dea Norge AS operated Maria field, which is tied back
to Equinor Energy AS’ Kristin platform. Wintershall Dea holds a 40
percent in license PL836S as operator, with DNO Norge AS and
Equinor each holding a 30 percent interest. DNO will now work
expeditiously with the other licensees to fast track development
utilizing the existing infrastructure in the area.
The Bergknapp light oil discovery in the Garn, Ile and Tilje
formations (44-75 MMboe) was made in 2020 and subsequently
appraised by re-entering and sidetracking the discovery well in
2021. The sidetrack well also extended into the deeper Åre
formation, where additional volumes of light oil, gas and
condensate were discovered (6-25 MMboe).
DNO’s 2023 North Sea exploration and appraisal program has led
to four successful exploration discoveries (Røver Sør, Heisenberg,
Carmen and Norma), two successful appraisal wells (of which one
with a sidetrack that has led to a new discovery in the same
license (Ofelia/Kyrre)) and two dry holes.
