(Oilandgaspress) – Equinor and its partners have made a commercial oil discovery in the Snorre area in the North Sea. The partnership has already planned for a rapid and cost‑effective development.

The well, drilled by the Deepsea Atlantic rig, has confirmed hydrocarbons. Preliminary volume estimate is between 25 and 89 million barrels of recoverable oil equivalents (4–14.2 million standard cubic metres).

Omega South is a pilot for a new, faster and more cost-efficient approach to developing subsea fields, showing the way for how the Norwegian continental shelf will evolve in the years to come.
