Gullfaks- has been still is an important field
to develop, prove and qualify new subsea technologies
Early production Gullfaks A 1986
using new subsea tech (6 wells)
Gullfaks Satellites (40 wells) came
in production from 1998 (to GFA)
and 2001 (to GFC) using new
qualified technologies (HOST, 7HXT,Smart wells, heated flowlines,
new flowline alloys, reeled pipe in
pipe, bundles)
The Gullfaks Sør Brent reservoir,
producing from the L and M
templates (7 wells) to GFC, is the
main source of gas from Tampen
fields towards Kårstø.
Subsea Compression :
The pressure has declined since
2001. In 2015, the wells will need
Subsea Compression to keep
production rates at todays level.

Project Drivers Gullfaks Subsea Compression
• “The development of subsea compression and processing is a central part of
Statoil’s technology strategy for long-term production growth” Margareth Øvrum
• Subsea compression at Gullfaks represents an important milestone in the efforts
to improve recovery from this and other gas fields.
• Without this technology 22 MBOE will be left behind.
• Statoil is the first energy company to utilize the Wet Gas Compression technology
• Start up gas compression Q4 2015

• 40 km step out
• Water depth 270 meters
• Production 21 Mill Sm3/d
Value creation
• Increased recovery from Midgard and Mikkel estimated to 282 Mboe
Technology step • Substantial recovery and lifetime increase for other technology users (gas fields)
Courageous decision • Pioneering work/complex development and important step towards a complete subsea factory
