World’s Largest Spar Platform on Stream


A video from Norway's Equinor outlines the road to production at the Aasta Hansteen gas field in the Norwegian Sea, which opened a new region for gas export to Europe when it came on stream on Sunday.

“Located in 1,300 meters of water, this is the deepest field development on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS), the largest spar platform in the world, and a first on the NCS. The field now coming on stream is unique,” said Anders Opedal, Equinor’s executive vice president for Technology, Projects and Drilling.
