OKEA 和 DNO ASA 已达成协议，OKEA 成为 Brasse 许可证 50% 的所有者，无偿接管之前合作伙伴的股权，DNO 持有剩余 50% 的股权。OKEA 还与 M Vest Energy AS 签订了 SPA，出售 Brasse 4.4424% WI 的股份，以进一步调整两个许可证的所有权。SPA 须经政府惯例批准。
OKEA and DNO ASA have entered into an agreement for OKEA to become a 50% owner of the Brasse license, taking over the previous partner`s equity free of charge, with DNO holding the remaining 50%. OKEA has also entered into a SPA with M Vest Energy AS to sell 4.4424% WI in Brasse to further align ownership in the two licenses. The SPA is subject to customary government approvals.
The partners in the Brasse license have now decided to continue to mature a tieback to the Brage platform, which is located 13 km north of the Brasse field. Key commercial terms for the tie-in have been agreed with the Brage license where OKEA is operator and holds a 35.2% WI. To reduce cost and maximise the synergies with Brage, it has been agreed that the operatorship of Brasse will be transferred to OKEA from the 1st September.
Knut Gjertsen, OKEA SVP for Projects and Technology, commented: "Together with DNO, we have in a short time worked out a project alternative for Brasse with a simplified tieback to Brage. We have now decided to continue to mature a development solution with less extensive topside modifications and a simplification of the design of the production wells compared to previous project assessments. We believe that this will result in a better and less costly project.”
The Brasse discovery was made in 2016 and four appraisal wells were drilled in the period 2017 to 2019. It is estimated that the Brasse field contains 30 mmboe, of which two-thirds is oil and the rest gas and NGL.
