Oct 29 (Reuters) - French oil major TotalEnergies SE
TTEF.PA has found additional gas reserves within the Harald
field it operates off the west coast of Denmark, it said on
Tuesday.
The discovery well, which yielded 48 meters of net gas
condensate, will be connected to existing offshore facilities
and is expected to start producing before the end of 2024.
"This additional discovery at the Harald field will
contribute to Danish energy supply by boosting our existing
production in the North Sea," Senior Vice President of
Exploration Kevin McLachlan said in a statement.
TotalEnergies produces more than 80% of oil and 90% of
Denmark's gas output via its 43.2% operating stake in the Danish
Underground Consortium. Partners include BlueNord BNOR.OL with
a 36.8% stake and Nordsofonden with 20%.
