Equinor successfully tests latest ABB technology for reliable temperature measurement in challenging offshore conditions
High accuracy temperature measurement is crucial in all stages of oil production, from initial extraction all the way to final distribution. Find out how ABB’s latest technology is helping Equinor with reliable temperature monitoring in the Johan Sverdrup oil field in the North Sea.
Johan Sverdrup is the third largest oil field on the Norwegian continental shelf, and a major supplier of energy to Europe. The entire field is now on stream, and accounts for roughly a third of Norway's oil production.
The field is located in the Utsira High area in the North Sea, 160 kilometers west of Stavanger, in water depths of 110-120 meters, and covers an area of 200 square kilometers.
