20180702_1909 TROLL A - 31/6 EQUINOR

The Troll field lies in the northern part of the North Sea, around 65 kilometres west of Kollsnes, near Bergen.

 

The field comprises the main Troll Øst and Troll Vest structures in blocks 31/2, 31/3, 31/5 and 31/6.

 

Containing about 40 per cent of total gas reserves on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS), it represents the very cornerstone of Norway’s offshore gas production.

 

Troll is also one of the largest oil fields on the Norwegian continental shelf. In 2002 the oil production was more than 400,000 barrels per day.

 

Equinor operate the Troll A, B and C platforms and the landfall pipelines, while Gassco is operator for the gas processing plant at Kollsnes on behalf of Gassled. Equinor is technical service provider for Kollsnes operations.

 

The enormous gas reservoirs lying 1,400 metres below sea level are expected to produce for at least another 70 years.
