Equinor, Partners Bolster Åsgard Production with Subsea Compressors Upgrade
with partners and suppliers, has further developed and qualified the next generation of compressor modules. The technology allows us to recover more gas from producing fields. Good resource utilization is important to maintain high and stable production from the Norwegian continental shelf," said Trond Bokn, Equinor's senior vice president for project development
Subsea7 and Equinor Strengthen Collaboration, Agreeing Work on Two Fields
early stage is a new way of approaching project development for us, and a vote of confidence in Subsea Integration Alliance. We look forward to develop concepts together, in a process with full visibility on profitability, and joint efforts to make these challenging projects sanctionable,” said Trond Bokn, Senior Vice President for Project Development of Equinor.“Subsea7 has been collaborating with Equinor for many years to optimise challenging subsea developments ranging from bundle solutions for the Snorre Expansion to the integrated Bacalhau development in Brazil. We look forward to extending

TechnipFMC Wins Johan Sverdrup 2 Contract
development and operation (PDO) for Johan Sverdrup phase 2, which was submitted to the authorities in August 2018, Equinor said.“We have now determined the subsea solution for both phase 1 and 2 of the field development, and TechnipFMC has been given the responsibility for both jobs,” said Trond Bokn, senior vice president for the Johan Sverdrup development. “This gives us a good starting point for accelerating the collaboration on safety, efficiency improvement, simplification and technology development. Close collaboration in the execution phase lays the foundation for achieving good
Johan Sverdrup Drilling Platform Installed
Sverdrup installation campaign. Two of the four Johan Sverdrup platforms are now in place. The power cables to the field were rolled out last week, and so far, the installation of Norway’s biggest oil pipeline has gone very well, so this is definitely moving in the right direction,” says Trond Bokn, senior vice president for Johan Sverdrup at Equinor.“At the same time, much work remains, and we must maintain extra focus on safety and quality in the execution phase.

Efficient Cable Installation Slashes Emissions at Johan Sverdrup
good communication and enable monitoring and, when required, remote control of parts of the Johan Sverdrup field’s operations from shore.“We are now laying the very lifeline of the Johan Sverdrup field, which will supply the field with power from shore for more than 50 years,” says Trond Bokn, senior vice president for Johan Sverdrup.The power cables will help make Johan Sverdrup one of the most carbon-efficient oil and gas fields in the world. Estimated at just 0.5 kg of CO2 per barrel, the emissions from Johan Sverdrup are about 20 times lower than the average on the Norwegian continental
More Oil from Gullfaks - Statoil
is part of Statoil’s fast-track portfolio, but it has a larger and more complex subsea scope than ordinary developments of this kind. Close to 800 vessel days and 2.3 million working hours have been completed with good HSE results. GSO is our most comprehensive fast-track project,» says Trond Bokn, vice president for subsea projects in Technology, Projects & Drilling. The project also involved 370 drilling rig days. The drilling programme will continue through the first quarter of 2016. GSO covers two subsea templates, four production wells, two gas injectors, a gas injection pipeline
