San Donato Milanese (Milan), 9 December, 2013 – Eni has made a new offshore oil and gas discovery in the Norwegian Barents Sea, approximately 240km from Hammerfest.
The well, which is located in the Skavl prospect in the PL532 license, has been drilled five kilometers south of the Johan Castberg area. It was drilled in approximately 349 meters of water and reached a target depth of 1,700 meters.
