Statoil and partners ENI and Petoro have made an oil discovery in the Kayak well in the Johan Castberg licence.
Totalling between 25 and 50 million barrels of recoverable oil equivalents, the discovery may provide valuable additional volumes for the Johan Castberg development. The discovery also opens other exploration opportunities in the same area.
The Kayak well has for the first time proven resources in this type of play in the Barents Sea.
