Development

Idun Nord is a field in the northern part of the Norwegian Sea, right east of the Skarv field. The water depth is 380 metres. Idun Nord was discovered in 2009, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in June 2023. The development concept includes a subsea template with four slots tied-back to the Skarv floating production, storage and offloading vessel (FPSO).

Reservoir

The reservoir contains gas and condensate in sandstone of Middle Jurassic age in the Garn and Not Formations. It is at a depth of about 3500 metres and has good quality.

Recovery strategy

The field will be produced by pressure depletion.

Transport

The gas will be exported via the Åsgard Transport System (ÅTS) to the terminal at Kårstø. Oil and condensate will be offloaded from the Skarv FPSO to shuttle tankers.

Status

Idun Nord is being developed together with Ørn and Alve Nord as part of the Skarv Satellite Project (SSP). The production is planned to start in 2027.
