Hod

Hod is a field in the southern part of the Norwegian sector in the North Sea, about 13 kilometres south of the Valhall field. The water depth is 72 metres. Hod was discovered in 1974, and the plan for development and operation (PDO) was approved in 1988. Production started in 1990 and ceased in 2013. 

PDO for the redevelopment of Hod with a new unmanned wellhead platform (Hod B) tied-in to the Valhall field centre was approved in 2020. Production from Hod B started in 2022.
