Preliminary production figures for North Sea oil production in Norway for September 2015 showed a slight dip from the previous month before.
Data shows an average daily production of about 1 864 000 barrels of oil, NGL and condensate.
This is 58,000 barrels per day (about 3%) less than August 2015.
The figures, released by the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate, reveal total gas sales were about 9.3 billion Sm3, which is 0.3GSm3 less than previous month.
The average daily liquid production in September was: 1,543 000 barrels of oil, 279,000 barrels of NGL and 42,000 barrels of condensate. The oil production is 4.8% above the oil production in September last year.
