The Norwegian Oil and Gas Giant Equinor Signed an Agreement with PGNiG to Sell Its Non-Operated Interests in the Tommeliten Discovery on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) for US$ 220 Million.
Equinor said on Thursday that Tommeliten Alpha is a gas/condensate discovery made in 1976. Through this transaction, Equinor will divest its 42.38% interest in the Tommeliten Unit (PL 044 TA) and 30% interest in PL 044 in the North Sea. Both are operated by ConocoPhillips.
In 2015, ConocoPhillips decided to cancel the development project for the Tommeliten Alpha discovery amid low oil prices.
Recoverable net resources in Tommeliten Alpha are 52 million barrels of oil equivalent, said Equinor.
