Impairments
A technical goodwill impairment on the Statfjord assets in the range of NOK 100
- 140 million is expected to be recognised in the quarter. The technical
goodwill impairment is mainly a result of change in risking of future projects.
Technical goodwill arises as an offset to the deferred tax recognised in
business combinations and is not tax deductible.
In addition, an impairment in the range of NOK 130-160 million is expected to be
recognised on the Yme asset following reduced forward prices for crude oil.
