By agreement with the partners in the Goliat licence, and due to the delay in the delivery of the production platform, Eni Norge has decided to postpone production start-up at the Goliat field until the third quarter of 2014.

The Goliat field development is based on large turnkey contracts (EPC) for the supply of subsea production systems, flowlines and risers, production facility, power cable to shore, modification of the power grid in the Hammerfest area and a state of the art offshore production facility, including the use of innovative technologies.
