Equinor has announced the beginning of production at the Breidablikk field in the North Sea. The project's start-up comes after a total investment calculated at US$1.9bn.
Breidablikk was developed as a subsea tie-back to the Grane platform, which is also operated by Equinor. The field holds almost 200 million barrels of recoverable oil and its development includes the drilling of 22 subsea wells across four templates.
Equinor has stated that production stage has been reached four months ahead of the company's initial expectations and inside the budget.
