About the field
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
- Development
- Sindre is a field in the northern part of the North Sea, three kilometres northeast of the Gullfaks field. The water depth is 250 metres. Sindre was discovered and granted exemption from a plan for development and operation (PDO) in 2017. The field is developed with one production well drilled from the Gullfaks C platform. The production started in 2017.
- Reservoir
- Sindre contains oil in Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic sandstone in the Lunde Formation, Statfjord Group and Dunlin Group. The main reservoir is at a depth of 3100 metres. The reservoir quality is good, but sealing faults reduce communication in the reservoir. Reservoir sandstone is also identified in Middle Jurassic Brent Group.
- Recovery strategy
- The field is produced by pressure depletion, but rapid pressure decline may necessitate pressure support.
- Transport
- The well stream from Sindre is processed together with the production from the Gimle field at the Gullfaks C facility, and transported further with oil and gas from the Gullfaks field.
- Status
- Sindre has been shut down for a long time due to low reservoir pressure. Cyclic production is planned in the future. A new production well was drilled in the area between the Sindre and Gimle fields in 2024, and there has been test productionfrom the well in 2025.
