"Helge Hammer, Chief Executive of Longboat, commented: “We are pleased to announce our first production acquisition in Norway, the next step in realising our growth ambitions on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The Statfjord Satellites are two high-quality, long-life assets undergoing an exciting and transformative redevelopment led by Equinor."
Hmmmn, I wonder if this is both a "production deal" and a "development deal" all wrapped into one! If thats the case, the CAPEX here expected to significantly increase production in 2024 would be subject to the generous Norwegian tax rebate system! Definitely a question for HH on Wednesday!
"A redevelopment plan was approved in 2021 to drill five new production wells into potentially undrained areas of the field while also adding gas-lift to increase production levels. This infill drilling programme is currently underway and anticipated to last until the end of 2023, resulting in a material uplift to production in 2024. The field is currently anticipated to produce until the late 2030s."
