In June 17.3 million standard cubic meters of oil equivalents (Sm3 o.e.) were produced. This is 0.5 million standard cubic meters less than in June 2008.

Several fields were partly closed in June due to planned maintenance.

Production from Valhall and Hod was partly closed 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. Total production so far is about 121.6 million Sm3 o.e. This is 0.4 million Sm3 o.e. less than in the same period last year.

Preliminary production figures for July 2009 show an average daily production of about 2.010 million barrels of oil, 0.352 million barrels of NGL and condensate and a total of 8.1 billion Sm3 net gas production in July.

Production from the Tyrihans field started on July the 8th.
