1. Statoil’s perspective on innovating solutions in the Arctic ARCTIC FUTURES SYMPOSIUM 2015 Dr. Morten Karlsen, Chief of Innovation, Statoil
2. The Arctic stepwise approach Arctic Technology R&D Timeline 1-3 years 3-6 years ~ 10 years Offshore Canada Bay du Nord Barents Sea Johan Castberg Sea of Okhotsk Magadan well 2015 Barents North well 2020 Perseevsky Barents Sea 23rd round Future cluster Flemish Pass Future cluster Barents Sea + NE Open water operations with account of ice in design and OSR Open water exploration – production in ice Year-round drilling an operations in harsh and remote environment
3. Competitive at all times Leading technological innovation in O&G Start-up Q3 Adding 306 million boe Åsgard: World’s first subsea compression 74 m 45 m VIDEO The Statoil Subsea Factory The Statoil subsea factory From topside to seabed
4. Technology and innovation Enabling year-round operations in the High North Robotics and Automation Safety and Working Conditions Arctic Environmental Technologies Data Collection and Field Experiments
5. Transition to low-carbon future Working with shipping companies to develop a more efficient / lower CO2 tanker fleet • 2011: World’s first product tanker converted to dual fuel LNG propulsion in operation on the Norwegian Coast for Statoil (Bit Viking Owner: Tarbit) • June 2015: The Bergen Viking ship returned to operation for product supply on the Norwegian Coast after being converted to a pure LNG powered engine (Owner: Bergen Tankers AS) • Statoil entered into time charter for 14 new buildings to ensure a high energy efficient tanker fleet • LNG emits about 20% less CO2 than diesel, both sulphur and particles are reduced to zero
6. Research institutions Suppliers Academia & Broad collaboration with world leading environments
