The well has been drilled north of the 30/11-8 S gas/oil/condensate discovery, and about 25km southwest of the Oseberg South field in the northern part of the North Sea.
The well aimed to prove petroleum in Middle Jurassic reservoir rocks (Tarbert, Ness and Etive formations).
An oil column of a total of 80m has been identified at the well 30/11-10 in the upper to middle Tarbert formation and 20m in the Etive formation, both with generally poor reservoir properties.
Additionally, mobile oil was discovered in the Ness formation in good quality reservoir rocks.
The licensees are scheduled to assess the discovery along with the development of other discoveries in the production license.
Although the well was not formation tested, the company conducted extensive data acquisition and sampling.
The well 30/11-10 was drilled to a vertical depth of 4054m, using Transocean Leader drilling facility, below the sea surface, and was terminated in the Dunlin group in the Lower Jurassic.
