Field

Eldfisk lies ~10-km south of Ekofisk in the southern Norwegian North Sea, discovered in 1970 and producing since 1979. Reservoirs are chalk of the Hod, Tor and Ekofisk Formations, with ongoing water injection to support recovery.

Facilities

Eldfisk S is a steel jacket platform that integrates multiple functions: wellheads, production processing, and support systems. It connects by bridge to Eldfisk E (water injection) and replaced older Eldfisk A/FTP facilities as part of the Eldfisk II redevelopment. Up to ~40 wells are tied into Eldfisk S, including production and injection wells drilled from its deck and adjacent subsea templates. Topside processing includes separation of oil, gas and water, basic dehydration, and routing fluids to export pipelines via the Eldfisk Centre and the Greater Ekofisk infrastructure. Utilities comprise power distribution (including subsea cable links to other Ekofisk area installations), water handling, flare systems, and accommodation for personnel. Safety and control systems encompass fire and gas detection, emergency shutdown, and control room interfaces. The platform supports export of oil via Norpipe to the UK and gas via pipelines to continental Europe.
