Major milestone or critical setback
On 24 March 2024, Equinor started supplying the Sleipner field centre with electricity from shore via a 28 km power cable from the Gina Krog platform, itself connected to the Johan Sverdrup Utsira High area power-from-shore system, and on the same date the Gudrun platform was connected to this onshore power through its existing cable to Sleipner, marking the first import of shore power and the start of partial electrification for Sleipner and Gudrun. This milestone enables a significant reduction in emissions from the Sleipner/Gudrun area as gas turbines are gradually phased down and all Utsira High installations operate with power from shore.
