On 15 December 2022 Equinor brought Johan Sverdrup Phase 2 on stream, including the second power‑from‑shore cable and associated facilities that extend the onshore HVDC supply from Haugsneset to the new P2 platform and the wider Utsira High area. From this date the electrification system operated at its full planned capacity, with one cable supplying the first four Johan Sverdrup platforms and the new cable supplying the fifth platform and other Utsira High installations, enabling large CO₂ emissions reductions estimated at around 1.2 million tonnes per year.
