Edda oil and gas field

The Edda oil and gas field is a crude oil and associated gas production field in the Norwegian sector of the central North Sea. Production of oil and gas started in 1979, peak oil and gas was achieved in 1980. Production ceased in 1998 and the installation and field infrastructure were dismantled in 2012.

The field
The characteristics of the Edda field reservoir are as follows.

Owner and operator
The field was owned and operated ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS.

Infrastructure
The field was developed through a single offshore installation, designated Edda ‘C’.

Production
The design production capacity was 4,100 Nm3/day oil and 1 million Nm3/day gas. Initial separation was at 515 psia (35.5 bar). Process facilities included gas dehydration and oily water treatment.

Production from the Edda field was by natural depletion. From 1988 gas from Tommeliten Gamma was used as gas lift for the Edda wells. The oil, NGL and gas production profile of the Edda field is as shown.

Over this period Edda produced 30.3 million barrels of oil, 1.97 million scm of gas and 21 000 tonnes of NGL.

Edda ‘C’ ceased in production in 1998 and the installation was removed from the field in 2012.
