Statoil is the operator for production license 104 and has received consent to drill exploration well 30/89 S on the Oseberg field.
Statoil has allocated 54 days for the activity and will be drilling with the Songa Delta, in approximately 99m water depth. The facility, a semisubmersible operated by Songa Offshore, was issued with an Acknowledgement of Compliance (AoC) by the Petroleum Safety Authority (PSA) in November 2012.
The PSA has now granted Statoil consent for exploration drilling.
