In 2010, the total production of oil and gas constituted 24.4m boe. In 2009, the total production constituted 24.0m boe. In 2010, 21% of the total production derived from the Danish fields and 79% from the Norwegian fields.
Compared to 2009, the oil production increased by 6% to 9.0m boe due to the commissioning of the Nini East field in Denmark and increased production from the Ula field in Norway.
The gas production, primarily deriving from the Ormen Lange fieldt in Norway, constituted 15.4m boe. which is on a par with the 2009 level. The production from the Ormen Lange field constituted 63% of the total production.
DONG Energy’s 2P reserves have reached a level of 446 million boe in recent years, equivalent to 19 times production.
Oil and gas reserves are built up partly through exploration, and partly through acquisition of licence stakes with the focus on maturing and developing fields.
Reserves consisted of 63% gas and 37% oil at the end of 2010.
