Noreco: Tyra redevelopment project delayed from 2022 into Q2 2023


Norwegian Energy Company ASA (“Noreco” or “the Company”) announces today the following update on the Tyra Redevelopment Project:

  • As a consequence of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, first production from the Tyra Redevelopment is expected in Q2 2023 instead of 2022 as previously communicated
  • The project remains on track to be delivered within budget

Due to COVID-19, local governmental imposed restrictions at the fabrication yards have impacted the schedule of the new Tyra topsides, including through the global supply chain delivering key components for the topsides. As a direct consequence of this impact the installation of the four new topsides is rescheduled from 2021 to a 2022 installation-window. 

First production from the redeveloped Tyra is then expected in Q2 2023.


 Facts:  

  • Noreco is a North Sea E&P company and the second largest producer in Denmark with a 36.8% ownership in The Danish Underground Consortium (“DUC”).
  • The DUC is a partnership between the operator Total (43.2%), Noreco (36.8%) and Nordsøfonden (20%).
  • The Tyra Field is the largest gas condensate field in the Danish Sector of the North Sea. Its facilities process more than 90% of the gas produced in Denmark, as well as the entire gas production of the DUC.
  • Due to seabed subsidence, the Tyra field required a redevelopment, a project that was sanctioned by the DUC in 2017.
  • The Tyra Redevelopment consists of three main elements: Removal and decommissioning of the prior Tyra platforms, reuse and 13 meters extension of the current jackets at six platforms that will have new topsides and a new process platform and a new accommodation platform. The project is, to date, the largest project carried out on Danish Continental Shelf. 
  • When back in operation, Tyra is expected to reach peak production of approximately 60,000 boepd.

Breathing new life into Tyra

The Danish Underground Consortium ("DUC") has approved an investment of DKK21 billion (USD3.4 billion) for the full redevelopment of the Tyra field.

DUC members are Total/Mærsk (31.2 %), Shell (36.8 %), Chevron (12 %) and Nordsøfonden (20 %). The development will ensure continued production from Denmark's largest field for years to come and will also rejuvenate important Danish offshore infrastructure. About 80% of the investment will be for modification of existing and construction of new facilities, with the remainder for decommissioning and removal.

The Mærsk press release noted:
"Tyra is the centre of Denmark’s national energy infrastructure, processing 90% of the nation’s gas production.

Through new development projects and third party tie-ins, the redevelopment of Tyra can be a catalyst for extending the life of the Danish North Sea – not just for Maersk Oil and the DUC, but also for Denmark."

"The new infrastructure can enable operators to pursue new gas projects in the northern part of the North Sea, where the most recent development, Tyra Southeast, delivered first gas in 2015 and is producing above expectations."

"The redeveloped Tyra is expected to deliver approximately 60.000 barrels of oil equivalent per day at peak, and it is estimated that the redevelopment can enable the production of more than 200 million barrels of oil equivalent. Approximately 2/3 of the production is expected to be gas and 1/3 to be oil."

The redevelopment has received government approval and will commence in 2019 with the field being shut-in between November 2019 and Summer 2022 for the works to take place.
