Abstract
Lavrans Field lies offshore Norway on the western extreme of Halten Terrace, 15 km south of Smorbukk Field (Figure 1). Exploration in this area has been extremely active, yielding two large gas and condensate discoveries within Petroleum License 199--Lavrans Field to the east and Kristin Field to the west. Combined reserves are approximately 1200 million barrels oil equivalent of gas and condensate. Unique conditions have come together to provide hydrocarbons and preserved porosity at depths greater than 5 km.
