OKEA and its partners have discovered petroleum in the ‘Knockando Fensfjord’ prospect in the North Sea. Preliminary estimates indicate between 0.5 and 1.5 million Sm3 of recoverable oil equivalent (o.e.) if the discovery is oil. If it is gas, the estimate is between 0.4 and 0.9 million Sm3 of o.e.
Eni has made a ‘significant’ gas and condensate discovery in the Ivory Coast. The discovery, named Calao South, confirms the potential of the Calao channel with estimated volumes of up to 5.0 Tcf of and 450 million barrels of condensate (approximately 1.4 billion barrels of oil). The discovery was made in high-quality Cenomanian sands. The main hydrocarbon-bearing interval has a gross thickness of around 50 m, with excellent petrophysical properties.
Equinor, Petoro and OMV have discovered oil and gas in the ‘Granat’ prospect near Gullfaks, 190 km northwest of Bergen. Preliminary estimates place the discovery between 0.2 and 0.6 million Sm3 of recoverable oil equivalent (o.e.).
