Husky Energy Inc. said initial construction work is progressing at the West White Rose project with oil production anticipated in 2022. West White Rose is expected to reach peak production of 75,000 b/d (52,500 b/d Husky working interest) in 2025.
Meanwhile, a program of infill wells and workover activities at White Rose oil field 350 km east of St. John’s, Newf., and its satellite extensions is offsetting reservoir declines until West White Rose comes on stream.
Husky said July 26 that it plans more delineation of the north White Rose area. In its second-quarter earnings report, Husky also said it has completed a planned turnaround of the White Rose floating production, storage, and offloading vessel.
The White Rose A-24 exploration well, 10 km north of the SeaRose FPSO, encountered a net pay thickness of more than 85 m of oil-bearing sandstone (OGJ Online, May 18, 2018).
Husky holds 68.875% interest in White Rose A-24. Partners are Suncor Energy Inc. with 26.125% interest and Nalcor Energy Oil & Gas with 5%.
