Equinor ASA has announced a significant gas and condensate discovery in development well 6406/2-L-2 H, located in the Norwegian Sea, 260 kilometers southwest of Brønnøysund. This well, part of production license 199 in the Haltenbanken Vest Unit, is connected to the ongoing Lavrans field development. Preliminary estimates suggest recoverable reserves of 2-4 million standard cubic meters of oil equivalent. The Norwegian Offshore Directorate indicates that the discovery may be integrated with existing infrastructure for the Lavrans project to enhance gas exports to Europe, particularly in light of reduced Russian gas supplies. Equinor plans to continue its exploration efforts, including additional wells in the Kristin field area. The company has also outlined a substantial investment plan for offshore projects in Norway through 2035.
