The Norwegian Ministry of Petroleum and Energy has approved Equinor’s plan for development and operation (PDO) of the Snorre expansion project, which will increase field recovery by some 46–51% (200mn barrels) and extend its life beyond 2040.

The Snorre expansion plan is the largest project for improved recovery on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS). The scheme involves a comprehensive subsea development, upgrading of the Snorre A installation, increased gas injection and gas import for injection, and is due onstream in 2021.
