Statoil has resumed full production of its Snorre B platform after it was shut down following a leak.
The Norwegian operator evacuated staff on May 20 after identifying a shift under a drilling template and then later a leak.
The firm dispatched a ROV to the area to assess the state-of-play. Meanwhile, a quarter of the platform’s staff were evacuated.
Partial production resumed on May 23 before coming fully back online.
Statoil’s partners in the field include state-owned Petoro, ExxonMobil, Idemitsu Petroleum, RWE and Core Energy.
The Snorre field is one Norway’s biggest oil producers, averaging 88,000 barrels of oil per day.
