Discoveries on the Norwegian shelf

A discovery is hydrocarbons proven by a wellbore. Most end up inside a field or folded into a larger discovery; the rest wait on a development decision, and the Directorate says how likely each is to be produced.

About this data

Norwegian Offshore Directorate (Sodir) FactPages, mirrored nightly and used under the Norwegian Licence for Open Government Data (NLOD). Status and hydrocarbon type are the Directorate's classification. The recoverable figure is its own resource estimate, published for discoveries that are not yet fields; Petrora does not estimate resources.

Developers: this page as JSON is GET /v1/data/norway/discoveries, documented in the API reference.
