SLB Expands Collaboration with Var Energi to Enhance Norwegian Shelf Development
SLB (SLB) announced an expanded collaboration with Var Energi (VARRY) to scale well planning and integrated field development planning across its Norwegian Continental Shelf operations. With collaborative well planning already reducing cycle times from months to days and integrated field development planning expected to support similar benefits, the expanded deployment is designed to support faster, more consistent decision-making as operators work to sustain production from mature offshore assets while managing increasing development complexity. As part of the expanded collaboration, Var Energi is deploying the Delfi digital platform to connect exploration, subsurface evaluation, well planning, subsea design, field development planning, and production in a cloud-native environment. By enabling teams to work concurrently using shared data and standardized workflows, the approach reduces handoffs and rework and supports more consistent, timely decision-making from early evaluation through development planning.
