Equinor has reportedly been talking to Aker BP about a possible asset swap in the North of Alvheim-Krafla-Askja (Noaka) field cluster.   Equinor would be prepared to hand-in its 20% stake in Lundin (said to be worth USD 2.1 bn) in return for Aker BPâs interest in the Noaka group, but would call for Aker BP to provide a hefty cash settlement as part of the deal. (Others however suggest a disposal by Equinor of its Lundin stake could fund an acquisition of Exxon assets).   Equinor wants to develop the Krafla and Askja finds by tying-in to Oseberg. In contrast, partner Aker BP sees an area-wide hub devt to join its discoveries north of Alvheim and the Equinor finds.
