E.ON nominates blocks in the Norwegian Sea and Barents Sea, the latter for the first time. As a part of the growth ambitions the Barents Sea is an emerging focus area for E.ON exploration.
E.ON has established a significant seismic data base in the Barents and a dedicated exploration team has worked focussed on this over the last year, leading to the nominations.
“We intend to apply with aggressive work programmes for the areas we would like awards in” says exploration manager Svend Erik Pettersson.
E.ON spudded two wells as operator in Norway in 2011. The PL350 Sesam well is still in progress.
