About the field

WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE

Development: Lille-Frigg is a field in the central part of the North Sea, 16 kilometres east of the Frigg field. The water depth is 110 metres. Lille-Frigg was discovered in 1975, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1991. The field was developed with a subsea installation with three production wells tied-back to the Frigg field. The production started in 1994.
Reservoir: The Lille-Frigg field produced gas and condensate from sandstone of Jurassic age in the Brent Group. The reservoir is at a depth of 3650 metres.
Recovery strategy: The field was produced by pressure depletion.
Transport: The well stream was transported directly to the Frigg field for processing. The gas was transported via pipeline to St Fergus in the UK. Stabilised condensate was transported via Frostpipe to the Oseberg field and onward to the Sture terminal.
Status: Lille-Frigg was shut down in 1999, and the installation was removed in 2001. The ongoing development of the Fulla field includes a redevelopment of Lille-Frigg as a subsea tie-back to the production platform on the Hugin field.
