The Johan Sverdrup oil field (Sverdrup Field) is an oil field in the North Sea, about 140 kilometres (87 mi) west of Stavanger, Norway.[1] The field lies in two different production licenses and consists of two different discoveries called Avaldsnes (where Lundin Petroleum is the operator) and Aldous Major South (where Statoil - now known as Equinor - is operator). When it was revealed that these discoveries constituted one single field, it was renamed Johan Sverdrup after the father of Norwegian parliamentarism. The field has not yet been unitized between production licenses 501, 501B, and 265.[2] Johan Sverdrup is expected to hold 1.9–3.0 billion barrels (300–480 million cubic metres) of oil.[3] According to Statoil,[4] the field is in 110 to 120 metres water depth, and the reservoir is at 1900 meters depth.
