Appraisal wells and sidetracks in the Tonjer and Geitungen areas have identified additional resources, with a preliminary resource estimate of 20–30 million barrels of oil equivalent. The resource base will be further clarified through ongoing analysis.

The development concept under consideration is a subsea tie-back to existing Johan Sverdrup infrastructure. This enables efficient development with low unit costs, low emissions, and a short lead time from investment decision to first production.

The project is being further matured towards an investment decision, with a potential production start in 2029.

The development is aligned with the partners’ strategy to maximize value creation from existing fields through increased utilization of installed capacity and phased development of adjacent resources.

Aker BP holds a 31.7 percent interest in Johan Sverdrup. The partnership consists of Equinor (operator), Aker BP, Petoro, and TotalEnergies.
