Lundin Petroleum's Hufsa exploration well in the southern Barents Sea made a non-commercial gas discovery.
A side track on the well, 7219/12-2, in PL533, was dry. The main objective of the well was to prove oil in Jurassic and Triassic sandstone reservoirs.
The main well 7219/12-2S encountered a gross 22m gas column while no hydrocarbons were encountered in the sidetrack 7219/12-2A.
The well was drilled with the semisubmersible drilling rig Leiv Eiriksson which after completion will proceed to drill the Hurri prospect, also in PL533.
Lundin Norway is the operator of PL533 with a 35% working interest. The partners are Aker BP with 35% and DEA Norge with 30%.
