据天然气工业10月29日消息称，Equinor计划投资250-350亿挪威克朗(约合30 - 42亿美元)，与合作伙伴共同开发北海的NOAKA油气田。
NOAKA项目(Alvheim Krafla Askja北部)将于2027年投产，并将成为自2019年Equinor巨型Johan Sverdrup油田投产以来挪威近海最大的油气开发项目。该地区的另一家运营商Aker BP表示，在Oseberg和Alvheim油田之间发现的石油集群总开发成本约为100亿美元。
Aker BP将运营其中两个许可证:North of Alvheim和Fulla (NOA Fulla)，该公司表示，其部分投资总额可能为400-550亿挪威克朗。Equinor将经营Krafla许可证，而包括波兰Lotos在内的合作伙伴将协调海上平台的加工、出口和电气化。
Equinor的一位发言人在一封电子邮件中说：“我们可以确定，我们(为Krafla)选择了一个概念。它将使用无人生产平台进行生产。”
Krafla将通过Aker BP在NOA的生产平台加工和出口石油，同时将天然气直接输送到挪威的陆上工厂进行加工，然后从那里出口到欧洲。周四，Aker BP将NOAKA对总可采储量的总体估计从之前的“超过”5亿桶油当量修正为约6亿桶油当量。
Aker BP表示，在NOA Fulla油田的生命周期内，其目标产量为2.5 - 3.7亿桶油当量，而Equinor表示，其目标是Krafla地区的产量约为3亿桶油当量。
Aker BP首席执行长Karl Johnny Hersvik说，Aker BP认为未来NOAKA的储量有大幅增加的潜力。
Equinor和Aker BP计划在2022年底前分别提出Krafla和NOA Fulla地区的两个独立开发计划。

Equinor sees its investment in NOAKA oil and gas at up to $4.2 B
Equinor plans to invest 25-35 B Norwegian crowns ($3-$4.2 B) to develop the so-called NOAKA oil and gas fields with partners in the North Sea.
The NOAKA (North of Alvheim Krafla Askja) project is set to come align="justify"> Aker BP, which will operate two of the licenses, North of Alvheim and Fulla (NOA Fulla), said its part of the investments could total 40-55 B Norwegian crowns. Equinor will operate the Krafla license, and the partnership, which also includes Poland's Lotos, will coordinate processing, exports and electrification of the offshore platforms.
"We can confirm that we have chosen a concept (for Krafla). It would be produced with (an) unmanned production platform," an Equinor spokesperson said in an email.
Krafla will process and export oil via Aker BP's production platform at NOA, while it would send natural gas directly for processing at an align="justify"> Aker BP said it targeted production of 250-370 MMboe from the NOA Fulla area during the field's lifetime, while Equinor said it aimed to produce about 300 MMboe in the Krafla area.
Aker BP Chief Executive Karl Johnny Hersvik said Aker BP saw a significant potential to increase NOAKA's reserves further in the future.
Equinor and Aker BP plan to present two separate development plans for the Krafla and the NOA Fulla areas respectively by the end of 2022.
