PDO submitted for Norwegian Oda field

Centrica Norge (operator, 40%), Suncor Energy Norge (30%), Aker BP (15%) and Faroe Petroleum (15%) have submitted a plan for development and operation (PDO) of the Oda (previously named Butch) field (licence PL 405) to the Norwegian Ministry of Petroleum and Energy. The proposed development will include a four-slot subsea template with two production wells, and one water injection well, which will tie back to the Ula platform. Oil will be transported via the Norpipe system to the Teesside terminal in the UK, while the gas will be sold at the platform to Ula for re-injection into the Ula reservoir to improve recovery.

Proven and probable reserves are put at 42mn boe, of which 95% is oil. Peak production is anticipated to be around 35,000 boe/d.
