About the field
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE
- Development
- Breidablikk is a field in the central part of the North Sea, ten kilometers northeast of the Grane field. The water depth is 130 metres. Breidablikk includes two discoveries, D-structure and F-structure, discovered in 1992 and 2013, respectively. The plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2021, and the production started in 2023. The field is developed with four subsea templates tied-back to the Grane platform.
- Reservoir
- The main reservoirs contain oil in Paleocene sandstone in the Heimdal Formation, at a depth of 1700 metres. The reservoirs have good quality, with little variation in reservoir properties. Above the Heimdal Formation, oil is present in a sand injectite complex in shales of Paleocene and Eocene age in the Lista, Sele and Balder Formations.
- Recovery strategy
- The field is produced by pressure depletion, assisted by gas lift in the production wells.
- Transport
- The oil is transported from Grane to the onshore terminal at Sture for storage and export.
- Status
- The production has been higher than anticipated. Drilling of new wells is ongoing.
