Equinor Shuts Down Visund Platform Following Electrical Fire
Equinor (EQNR) has suspended production at its Visund oil and gas platform located in the Norwegian North Sea. The shutdown was triggered by a fire within an electrical system, which has since been successfully extinguished. The incident has resulted in a total loss of the field's gas export capacity, amounting to 13.2 million cubic meters per day. This sudden reduction in output may impact regional gas supply levels while repairs are assessed.
