In Q&A, analyst Stefan asks about water injection, voidage etc...
CNE said voidage was/is major issue, was due to lack of water injection (was due to beast from east), is now fixed.
MO's interpretation, so AK was sucking all oil from around each production well, but because no injection, new oil was not being pushed towards wells, i.e. not replacing voidage, was reason for lower production in Q2, some 1 million barrels needed to be pushed back, is ongoing and improving.
Also mentioned water injection is currently being tested to further optimise where the water is sent, presently is uniformly injected across all Kraken areas, area looking to fine tune and maybe send more to some areas versus others, or something like that.
Good luck all
