A total of 289 wells were drilled and completed, making 80 commercial discoveries with associated resources of 2.5 bnboe at a drilling finding cost of US$4.8\/boe. The proportion of infrastructure-led wells has trended upwards over the decade as companies look to sustain production levels in older hubs and improve project economics and cycle times. This is expected to continue, with less emphasis on high impact prospects as the basin matures and there are fewer large play openers<\/p>\r\n<p>Presented and recorded on Wednesday 4th September, 2024.<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\r\n<!-- wp:paragraph --><!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n<div style=\"padding: 56.25% 0 0 0; position: relative;\"><iframe style=\"position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%;\" title=\"Westwood Webinars - Norway State of Exploration 2014-2023\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1006197497?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/api\/player.js\"><\/script><\/p>\r\n<p>For access to this video on demand, please complete the form below and your request will be reviewed.
