The proposal was to build two new facilities – wellhead platform Ekofisk 2/4 X and process centre 2/4 J – with the capacity to handle the plateau production envisaged from 1998.
This meant these installations were designed to deal with a daily output of 220 000 barrels of oil and 750 million cubic feet of gas.
That contrasted with 260 000 barrels and a billion cubic feet for the former facilities. But a number of the small fields in the Greater Ekofisk Area were expected to cease production.
