Equinor doubles Afrodite gas discovery estimate after appraisal well
Bitget2026/10/29 06:38- Equinor on October 29, 2026, reported recoverable volumes at the North Sea’s Afrodite discovery could exceed twice previous estimates.
- An appraisal well put recoverable gas and condensate volumes at 77 million to 180 million barrels of oil equivalent.
- The discovery is considered commercially viable, with a potential subsea development tied back to the Kvitebjørn platform under evaluation.
- Gas could reach the European market through existing infrastructure via the Kollsnes processing plant in Øygarden.
- Low reservoir permeability limits recovery, with total reservoir volumes about three times the estimated recoverable resources.
