OSLO, Norway — ConocoPhillips has permission from Norway’s Petroleum Safety Authority to dispose of platform structures on the Tor and Eldfisk fields in the southern Norwegian North Sea.
The consent applies to removal of the Tor 2/4E platform including the flare installation and connecting bridge, and the Eldfisk 2/7FTP flare structures.
To date, 15 platforms have been removed from the Ekofisk area.
Eldfisk, an oil field 10 km south of the Ekofisk Field, underwent development in 1975 with production starting in 1979.
Tor was initially onstream from 1978 to 2015. A redevelopment was approved in 2019, involving two seabed templates and a tieback to Ekofisk for processing and export. Production resumed in 2020.
