Development
Byrding is a field in the northern part of the North Sea, four kilometres north of the Fram H-Nord field and 30 kilometres north of the Troll C facility. The water depth is 360 metres. Byrding was discovered in 2005, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2017. The development concept is a two-branch multilateral (MLT) well drilled from the Fram H-Nord template. The production started in 2017.Reservoir
Byrding produces oil and gas from turbiditic sandstone of Late Jurassic age in the Heather Formation. The reservoir is at a depth of 3050 metres. It is structurally complex and has good reservoir quality.Recovery strategy
The field is produced by pressure depletion.Transport
The well stream is routed through Fram Vest to Troll C for processing. The oil is transported further in the Troll Oil Pipeline II to the Mongstad terminal, and the gas is exported via Troll A to the Kollsnes terminal.Status
There has been no production from Byrding in 2023. A recompletion of the well is planned for 2024 to put it back in production.ACCRUED INVESTMENTS IN NOMINAL NOK
