Norway’s Petroleum Safety Authority (PSA) has granted Statoil consent to use the Scarabeo 5 semisubmersible rig for well activities on the Njord field, in the Norwegian Sea.
Statoil is the operator at Njord, around 130km north of Kristiansund.
The Njord field has been developed using a semisubmersible drilling, accommodation and production facility, Njord A, and the Njord B FSU. Water depth at the site is 330m. Production on the field began in 1997.
The PSA has now granted Statoil consent to use Scarabeo 5 for various well activities associated with production wells on the field. The activities are scheduled to begin on 10 November 2016.
