Spirit Energy is partner in what could be the largest oil discovery on the Norwegian Continental Shelf so far this year.

Production has been boosted from two North Sea fields following successful drilling campaigns - with the new C6 well at Spirit Energy’s Chiswick field in the Southern North Sea and a new production well at the Chestnut field.

Spirit Energy has signed an agreement to divest two non-core Danish assets to INEOS.

Spirit Energy and its partners in the Statfjord area plan to drill up to 100 new wells and extend production by more than 10 years. Previous plans to decommission Statfjord A in 2022 have been shelved to extract even more value from the field.
