Njord (50% working interest)
The Njord Future project is a major redevelopment project that aims to add a further 20 years of production from the field. The field was shut in from 2016 to 2022 for extensive onshore upgrades and consists of Njord A, a floating inte grated semisubmersible production and drilling platform, and Njord B, a floating oil storage vessel (FSU). Njord restarted production in late 2022. Njord Future comprises ten new wells, which are expected to be drilled in the period of 2023 to 2026. Njord is the host for three tiein fields: Hyme, Bauge and Fenja, which started production in April 2023. Wintershall Dea holds equity in both Hyme and Bauge. The partners of Njord and the thirdparty fields have sanctioned a project to provide power from shore to partly electrify the facilities starting in 2027. The re spective plan for development was submitted to the authorities in December 2022 and approved in December 2023. The operator expects to cut production related
CO2 emissions by about 130,000 tonnes per year.

Skarv (28% working interest)
The Skarv area comprises several gas and oil reservoirs, including the Skarv, Idun, Ærfugl and Gråsel deposits, located in the Norwegian Sea. Production started in Decem ber 2012 via a purposebuilt floating production storage facility and offloading unit (FPSO). Since startup, several additional fields have been tiedin to enhance production. Further infill wells are being matured in the Skarv area.
In 2022, additional investment decisions were taken for two subsea tieback projects to the Skarv field, Idun Nord (40% working interest) and Alve Nord (20% working interest). Both projects have received approvals for the plans of development and operations (PDO) by the MPE
in the second quarter of 2023.
Gjøa (28% working interest)
Gjøa is a gas and oil field located in the North Sea that began production in 2010. The Gjøa facility is mainly supplied with power from shore and therefore generates low emissions and has a small CO2 footprint. Gjøa serves
as a production hub for other fields as well, like our own operated Vega and Nova fields. Additional tiein prospects are being drilled in the vicinity of the Gjøa installation, which potentially will prolong field life for Gjøa and existing tieins.
