Lime Petroleum AS（“Lime”）欣然宣布，PL740 Bestla油田的运营商（Lime拥有其17%的权益）已于2025年8月4日开钻两口生产井中的第一口。

该井由“Deepsea Yantai”钻井平台使用Bestla海底基盘进行钻探，该基盘于2025年6月初安装完毕。Bestla油田的可采储量估计为2400万桶油当量，目前正在开发一条双井海底连接线，连接Brage油田（Lime拥有其33.8434%的权益）。Brage平台将作为生产、加工和出口的主机设施。预计第一批石油将于2027年初产出。

价值63亿挪威克朗（约合5.71亿美元）的Bestla油田开发和运营计划（PDO）于一年前的2024年4月30日在挪威能源部举行的仪式上正式提交，并于2024年11月19日获得批准。PL740 Bestla开发项目位于北海北部，距Brage油田以南13公里。OKEA ASA是Bestla和Brage油田的运营商。Lime

首席执行官Lars B. Hübert先生表示：“Bestla开发项目在采用标准解决方案、成熟技术以及与战略合作伙伴密切合作方面堪称典范。”该项目盈亏平衡点约为每桶 40 美元，开发项目高效且具有成本效益，这在当前地缘政治形势下，对于油价波动至关重要。PL740

Lime Petroleum AS (“Lime”) is pleased to share that the operator of PL740 Bestla, in which Lime has a 17 per cent interest, has on 4 August 2025, spudded the first of two production wells.

The well is being drilled by the rig Deepsea Yantai from the Bestla Subsea Template, which had been installed in early-June 2025. The Bestla Field, estimated to contain 24 million barrels of oil equivalent gross in recoverable reserves1, is being developed as a two-well subsea tie-back to the Brage Field, in which Lime has a 33.8434 per cent interest. The Brage platform will serve as the host facility for production, processing, and export. First oil is expected in early 2027.

The NOK6.3 billion (about US$571 million) Plan for Development and Operation (PDO) for the Bestla Field was officially submitted to the Norway Ministry of Energy in a ceremony held a year ago on 30 April 2024 and was approved on 19 November 2024. The PL740 Bestla development is located in the northern North Sea, 13 kilometres south of the Brage Field. OKEA ASA is the operator for both the Bestla and Brage Fields.

Mr Lars B. Hübert, Chief Executive Officer of Lime, said, “The Bestla development is exemplary in the use of standard solutions, well-proven technology, and close cooperation with strategic partners. With a project breakeven at around US$40 per barrel, the development is an efficient and cost-effective one, which is all the more important against volatility in oil prices amid the current geo-political situation.”

The PL740 partnership consists of OKEA ASA (operator 39.2788 per cent), DNO Norge AS (39.2788 per cent), Lime Petroleum AS (17 per cent), and M Vest Energy AS (4.4424 per cent).

The Brage Unit partnership consists of OKEA ASA (operator 35.2 per cent), Lime Petroleum AS (33.8434 per cent), DNO Norge AS (14.2567 per cent), Petrolia Noco AS (12.2575 per cent), and M Vest Energy AS (4.4424 per cent).

Lime farmed in for a 17 per cent interest in PL740 with the Bestla (previously known as Brasse) development in late 2023; and acquired a 33.8434 per cent interest in the Brage Field in 2021.
