PRODUCTION FROM THE FIELD

Development

Frøy is a field in the central part of the North Sea, 22 kilometres northeast of the Heimdal field. The water depth is 120 metres. Frøy was discovered in 1987, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1992. The field was developed with a wellhead facility with 15 well slots. The production started in 1995.

Reservoir

Frøy produced oil from Jurassic sandstone in the Brent Group at a depth of 3200-3300 metres.

Recovery strategy

The field was produced by pressure support from water injection.

Transport

The well stream was transported by pipeline to the Frigg field for treatment and metering, and transported further via pipeline to the terminal of the Shell-Esso Gas and Liquids (SEGAL) system at St Fergus in the UK.

Status

Frøy was shut down in 2001, and the facility was removed in 2002. The ongoing development of the Hugin field includes a redevelopment of Frøy with a normally unmanned platform, Hugin B, tied-back to Hugin A.
