Permit Type:Environmental Impact Assessment for Johan Sverdrup power-from-shore solution

Description

Statoil submitted the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the Johan Sverdrup development in November 2014, covering the planned power-from-shore electrification concept and concluding that high-voltage direct current (HVDC) would be used instead of AC because of transmission losses over the long offshore distance.
