Gudrun
Gudrun is an offshore steel jacket production platform in the North Sea, located ~55-km north of the Sleipner area. It began production in 2014 and processes gas and condensate. Hydrocarbons are partially treated offshore before being exported via pipeline to Sleipner A for further processing and onward export to markets.

Field
The Gudrun field sits on the Norwegian continental shelf, producing from high-pressure, high-temperature reservoirs. It contains gas and condensate in Jurassic formations, developed with a steel jacket supporting topside processing modules. Production ties into regional infrastructure for export.
Facilities
The Gudrun platform has multiple production wells and integrated processing facilities for initial separation of gas and condensate. Offshore utilities include power generation (turbines), water handling, compression for gas lift/injection, and safety systems (flare, ESD) optimized for high-pressure subsea wellheads. Hydrocarbons are exported via dedicated pipelines to the Sleipner A processing platform, where further treatment occurs before gas export to continental markets and condensate routing to Kårstø. Supporting infrastructure includes accommodation, power distribution, and control systems for remote operation coordination with Sleipner facilities.
