What happened
Some supportReported by 1 outlet
Equinor confirmed the discovery of gas at the Gullfaks South field, located 190 kilometers northwest of Bergen. The discovery yielded between 0.5 million and 1.6 million standard cubic metres of recoverable oil equivalents, which corresponds to 3.3 to 10.3 million barrels of oil equivalent. The Gullfaks production license, where the discovery was made, is jointly owned by Equinor, Petoro, and OMV.
