Alvheim
Alvheim is located in the central part of the North Sea, near the border with the UK sector. The field comprises six accumulations: Kameleon, Boa, Kneler, Viper, Kobra and Gekko. Boa extends partly into the UK sector. The water depth is 120–130 metres.
Alvheim was discovered in 1998, and the Plan for Development and Operation (PDO) was approved in 2004. Production started in 2008.
The Vilje, Volund, Bøyla, Skogul and Tyrving fields are tied back to Alvheim.
Alvheim has seen a significant increase in estimated recoverable oil and gas resources since the PDO.
Continued focus on increased oil recovery (IOR)
Aker BP continues working on increased oil recovery at Alvheim. Both proven resources in the area and potentially new discoveries can be linked to Alvheim FPSO in the coming years.
