An entirely new play you probably haven't thought of - Denmark's Halfdan oilfield

[@mikehardwicke23]

Given its structural attitude how was it discovered ? (Nice presentation 👍).

[@TROVE-1stSubsurface]

Thanks Mike. ERD wells drilled from Dan kept going further downdip and were still encountering oil. After what must have been some head-scratching, a vertical exploration well was drilling in the synclinal area. The rest, as they say, is history.

New oil in 2024? You must have missed the remaining carbon budget news.

[@TROVE-1stSubsurface]

Carl, so many countries are promoting E&P activity. Without it, oil & gas availability will plummet. Sure the UK is shaping up to be a basket case, but many countries are supplying a global demand which shows little sign of diminishing.

Water injection on Halfdan unconventional oil field is a technology which is not proved. Field experience on water injection on unconventional reservoirs in USA have failed. These unconventional oil reservoirs very well can be developed using injectants which can be injected and controlled the movement.

[@TROVE-1stSubsurface]

We don't have details on the water injection performance at Halfdan. I'm sure our viewers in GEUS, ex-Maersk Oil, Copenhagen etc have knowledge. Perhaps there is a paper out there somewhere. We can't comment - merely flag this as a very interesting development in an offshore setting. Anyone?
