Several fields have been partly closed due to planned maintenance in May.

Production from Valhall and Hod have been closed the whole month due to corrosion problems.

So far this year the average daily production has been about 2.0 million barrels of oil and the total liquid production about 2.4 million barrels. The total production so far is about 104.3 million Sm3 o.e. This is 0.2 million Sm3 o.e. more than in the same period last year.
