Edison Norge's exploration well on the Haribo prospect in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea has been declared dry.

Partner Noreco Norway said well will now be plugged and abandoned.

The well spudded on 21 June using the semisubmersible drilling rig Transocean Searcher, 10km southwest of BP's Valhall field.

Drilling was planned to a vertical depth of 3350m below the seabed in the Hidra formation. The predicted reservoir is chalk of Upper Cretaceous age similar to the Valhall reservoir.

The partners in the license PL616 are Edison Norge (operator with 25%), Noreco Norway (20%), Concedo (20%), Lime Petroleum Norway (15%), North Energy (15%) and Skagen 44 (5%).
