Development

Fenja is a field in the Norwegian Sea, 35 kilometres southwest of the Njord field. The water depth is 325 metres. The field also includes the discovery 6406/12-3 A (Bue). Fenja was discovered in 2014, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 2018. The field is developed with two subsea templates with a total of six wells, tied-back to the Njord A facility. The production started in April 2023.

Reservoir

The reservoirs contain oil and gas in sandstone of Late Jurassic age in the Melke Formation, and oil in Upper Jurassic sandstone in the Rogn Formation. They are in a fan system at a depth of 3200-3500 metres and have variable reservoir properties.

Recovery strategy

The field is produced by pressure support from water and gas injection. Produced gas is reinjected into the reservoir. The reinjected gas will be produced at the end of the oil production period.

Transport

The well stream is routed by pipeline to the Njord A facility for processing. The oil is stored at the Njord B facility and transferred to shuttle tankers. The gas is exported via Åsgard Transport System (ÅTS).

Status

The production in 2024 has been lower than planned due to downtime of the process facility and lower well performance. Drilling of an exploration well on the discovery 6406/11-1 S (Vidsyn) is planned for 2025.
