Snorre A platform in the south is a floating steel facility for accommodation, drilling and processing. Snorre A has also a separate process module for production from the Vigdis field. A subsea template with ten well slots, Snorre UPA, is located centrally in the field and connected to Snorre A. Oil and gas from Snorre A is piped to the nearby
Statfjord A platform for final processing. Snorre B platform is located in the northern part of the field and is a semi-submersible integrated
drilling, processing and accommodation steel facility. Oil from Snorre B is piped 45 km to Statfjord B platform for storage and export. The Snorre field is operated by
Statoil. In 2009, Statoil started a project to upgrade the offshore production complex. The
Norwegian Petroleum Directorate is requesting Statoil to build a new platform at the field. On 12 December 2020, the Snorre Expansion Project in the North Sea started production. The major Increased Oil Recovery project was to add nearly 200 million barrels of recoverable oil reserves besides extending the Snorre field's productive life through 2040. Multiple efforts to enhance oil recovery over several years make Snorre perhaps the largest improved oil recovery project on the Norwegian shelf. ==Reserves==
