Nov 11 (Reuters) \u2013 ConocoPhillips said on Wednesday it has discovered gas condensate offshore Norway, sending the oil producer\u2019s shares up 2% in premarket trade.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The discovery was made northwest of the Heidrun oil and gas field and 150 miles (241.4 km) from the coast of Norway in the Norwegian Sea.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The company said preliminary estimates place the size of the discovery between 50 million barrels and 190 million barrels of recoverable oil equivalent.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It added that further appraisal will be conducted to determine potential flow rates, the reservoir\u2019s ultimate resource recovery and plans for development.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Warka (well) discovery and potential future opportunities represent very low cost of supply resource additions that can extend our multi-decade success on the Norwegian Continental Shelf,\u201d Chief Operating Officer Matt Fox said.<\/p>\n
