Description
WRITTEN BY THE NORWEGIAN OFFSHORE DIRECTORATE

(1999) in the knowledge of the ongoing more detailed work presented herein.
Type area The Bjarmeland Platform in the southern Norwegian Barents Sea is here defined as type area for the group since the offshore successions are best displayed in wells from this area, including the eastern flanks of the Loppa High (Fig 9.38). Three wells show typical developments of the group: 7124/3-1 (4271 m to 3900 m), 7226/11-1 (4334 m to 4103 m) and 7121/1-1 R (3990 m to 3502 m): th
