據全球能源新聞網8月24日報道，Wintershall Dea已開始其與合作伙伴Petoro和Sval Energi在挪威海運營的Dvalin氣田的生產，為歐洲市場提供了大量新天然氣。

該氣田有助于鞏固挪威作為歐洲最大天然氣供應國的地位：Dvalin計劃生產足夠為200多萬戶家庭供暖的能源。隨著歐洲繼續尋找可預測的長期天然氣供應，天然氣產量增加。Wintershall Dea首席運營官Dawn Summers表示，“我們意識到，在冬季的幾個月里，歐洲對天然氣的需求將上升，歐洲大陸將期待挪威成為首選供應商。我們一直在努力確保Dvalin的安全投產，并對該氣田將為歐洲能源安全形成的重大貢獻感到滿意”。

自2020年底以來，在測量到井流中汞含量高后，該氣田已被關閉。從那時起，在挪威中部的Nyhamna和Tjeldbergodden的陸上加工設施中安裝了除汞裝置。

Dvalin氣田的預計壽命到2038年，包括目前正在開發的Dvalin North氣田。

位于Heidrun西北約15公里處的Dvalin，采用單一海底模板和四口生產井進行開發。該氣田是Wintershall Dea繼Maria、Nova和Vega之后在挪威運營的第四個海底氣田。

WINTERSHALL DEA FLOWS FIRST COMMERCIAL GAS FROM DVALIN

Wintershall Dea has started production from the operated Dvalin gas field in the Norwegian Sea together with the partners Petoro and Sval Energi, providing significant new gas volumes to the European market.

The field helps underpin Norway’s position as Europe’s largest gas supplier: On plateau, Dvalin is planned to produce enough energy to heat more than 2 million homes. The additional volumes come as Europe continues to search for predictable long-term supplies of natural gas. “We are aware that in the winter months European demand for gas will rise, and the continent will be looking to Norway to be the supplier of choice. We have worked hard to ensure Dvalin will be onstream safely, and are satisfied that the field will make a significant contribution to European energy security,” said Dawn Summers, Wintershall Dea Chief Operating Officer.

The field has been shut-in since late 2020 after measurements of high levels of mercury in the well stream. Since then, mercury removal units have been installed at the onshore processing facilities at Nyhamna and Tjeldbergodden in mid-Norway.

The Dvalin field has an estimated lifetime until 2038 including the Dvalin North field, which is currently being developed.

Located some 15 kilometres northwest of Heidrun, Dvalin has been developed using a single subsea template with four production wells. The field now joins Maria, Nova and Vega as Wintershall Dea’s fourth operated subsea field in Norway.
