Across Norway there are 10 billion barrels of discovered oil equivalent (boe) yet to be developed.  These resources are at different stages of evaluation but Wood Mackenzie estimates over 60% could be commercialised.  The potential added value for companies is US$22 billion, and for the Norwegian Government it could be worth US$84 billion from taxes alone.
