Oseberg (Norwegian: Osebergfeltet) is an offshore oil field with a gas cap in the North Sea located 140 km (87 mi) northwest of the city of Bergen on the southwestern coast of Norway.[1]
The field, which is 25 km long by 7 km wide,[2] was discovered in 1979 and its development is known to be one of the significant milestones in emergence of Norway's independent oil and gas industry.[3][4] The Oseberg field was named after Oseberg ship, one of Norway's most significant archeological discoveries. The ancient Viking ship from the early 9th century was discovered in a 1904 historical excavation of a burial mound at the Oseberg Farm, south of Oslo.[5]
An extensive subsea pipeline network called Oseberg Transport System (OTS) transports up to 765,000 bbl/d (121,600 m3/d) from the Oseberg area to Sture terminal in Norway.[6] The sea depth in the Oseberg area is 100 meters.
The Oseberg Field Centre consists of three platforms: Oseberg A, B and D, connected to each other by bridges, in the southern part of the Oseberg field and the Oseberg C platform, which is located 14 kilometers north of the field center. The operator is Equinor, in partnership with Petoro, TotalEnergies, ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips.[3] The field extends into blocks 30/6 and 30/9, parts of Production licenses (PL) 053 and 079.[3]
