Amplitude Brights and Hydrocarbon Occurrence in License PL128, Offshore Mid-Norway

A-38 AMPLITUDE BRIGHTS AND HYDROCARBON OCCURRENCE IN LICENSE PL128 OFFSHORE MID-NORWAY Introduction 1 License PL128 is located on northern Dønna Terrace between the Nordland Ridge and the Træna Basin offshore mid-Norway. Eleven exploration wells have been drilled in the license between 1986 and 2002. Exploration has been successful with discovery of the Norne (1992) Svale (2000) Falk (2002) and Stær (2002) fields. Two additional exploration wells will be drilled during first half of 2003. Within the license area there is a correlation between amplitude brights on top reservoir level and oil discoveries. This relationship has to some extent been used
