Field: URD

General information

Current activity status: PRODUCING
Discovery wellbore: 6608/10-6
Discovery year: 2000
Discoveries included: 6608/10-11 S
6608/10-8 STÆR
6608/10-9 LERKE

Description Norwegian

Development

Urd is located northeast of Norne in the Norwegian Sea. The water depth in the area is approximately 380 metres. The field com-prises two oil deposits, 6608/10-6 Svale and 6608/10-8 Stær. Urd has been developed with subsea templates tied back to the Norne vessel. In April 2008, an amended PDO for Norne and Urd was approved. The plan comprises the discovery 6608/10-11 S Trost and a number of pro-spects in the area around Norne and Urd.

Reservoir

The reservoirs consist of Lower to Middle Jurassic sand-stones of the Åre, Tilje and Ile Formations at a depth of 1 800 - 2 300 metres.

Recovery strategy

Urd is recovered by water injection. In addition, the wells are supplied with gas lift to be able to produce at low reservoir pressure and high water cut.

Transport

The wellstream is processed on the “Norne FPSO”, and oil is buoy-loaded together with oil from the Norne field. The gas is sent from Norne to Åsgard, and then exported via Åsgard Transport System to Kårstø.

Status

Production performance has been lower than expected in 2010 partly due to challenges in drainage and pressure support. Proven resources in the Melke Formation, overlying the Svale and Stær deposits, are presently not considered profitable for production.
