Aker BP takes over as operator for the Oda field

Moscow, February 6 - Neftegaz.RU. On February 1st, Aker BP took over the operatorship of the Oda field from Sval Energi.

Talar Arif, Director of the Ula area said:

• this is a good example of the excellent cooperation between the license partners in the Ula area: we have a common goal of finding solutions that maximize value creation both in the operational and decommissioning phases;
• by transferring the operatorship to Aker BP, Oda will become an integrated part of the optimization of late-phase operations, as well as the planning and execution of the decommissioning and removal of infrastructure in the Ula area;
• this will provide both technical and economic synergies in the operational and decommissioning phases.

Oda is located 14 kilometres east of Ula.
The development concept is a subsea template with two production wells and one injection well tied to Ula.
Production from Oda started in 2019.

Partners in Oda are Sval Energi (70%), DNO Norge (15%), and Aker BP (15%).
The ownership shares in the Oda license 405 are not affected by the transfer of operatorship to Aker BP.

The company operates the field centres Valhall, Ula, Edvard Grieg/Ivar Aasen, Alvheim and Skarv, and is a partner in the Johan Sverdrup field.
