BP is celebrating production from the Skarv field in the Norwegian Sea. CEO Bob Dudley called the start-up a “key operational milestone” for the supermajor. The Skarv development includes an FPSO (pictured), five subsea drilling templates, and a 26in diameter, 80km-long gas export line connecting to the Gassled transport system. BP expects Skarv to hit peak production of 165,000boe/d by year-end.
