V挪威能源公司在挪威近海北海的灵霍恩北发现了石油。 25/8-23 S 井和 25/8-23 A & B 井位于 Ringhorne 脴st 油田以北、斯塔万格西北 200 公里处。该井是使用 Odfjell Drilling 的 Deepsea Yantai 半潜式钻井平台进行钻探的。

初步计算表明，该发现的规模为 2 至 370 万标准立方米可采油当量。据挪威近海管理局称，这相当于 13-2300 万桶。

被许可人正在考虑将这一发现与附近现有的基础设施联系起来。

这些是2018年颁发的956号生产许可证中的第一批勘探井。V挪威能源公司最近在该地区进行了勘探活动，包括在Hubert和Magellan矿区钻探了两口生产许可证PL 917中的勘探井。

V挪威能源公司经营Balder和Ringhorne脴st油田。其勘探活动的结果对于未来地区的开发以及 Balder 和 Ringhorne 脴st 油田的寿命非常重要。

Vår Energi has discovered oil at Ringhorne Nord in the North Sea, offshore Norway. The wells, 25/8-23 S and 25/8-23 A & B, are north of the Ringhorne Øst field and 200 km northwest of Stavanger. The well was drilled using Odfjell Drilling’s Deepsea Yantai semisubmersible rig.

Preliminary calculations indicate the discovery’s size at between 2 and 3.7 million standard cu m of recoverable oil equivalent. According to the Norwegian Offshore Directorate, this is the equivalent of 13-23 million barrels.

The licensees are considering a tieback of the discovery to existing nearby infrastructure.

These are the first exploration wells in production license 956, awarded in 2018. Vår Energi recently conducted exploration activity in the area, including drilling two exploration wells in production license PL 917 in the Hubert and Magellan prospects.

Vår Energi operates the Balder and Ringhorne Øst fields. The results of its exploration activity are important for future area development and the lifetimes of the Balder and Ringhorne Øst fields.
