Oil discovery from North Sea Visund

Equinor, together with partners Petoro, ConocoPhillips and Repsol, has made an oil discovery from the Visund A platform in the Telesto exploration well in the North Sea. Resources are estimated at 12–28mn barrels of recoverable oil.

‘We are pleased to have made a new discovery on Equinor-operated acreage on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS). These are profitable barrels that can be quickly tied into existing infrastructure and generate substantial revenues. Infrastructure-led exploration is an important part of our roadmap for the NCS,’ comments Nick Ashton, Equinor’s Senior Vice President for Exploration in Norway and the UK.
