Notes

What the sources and OESA say about the data for the country, including what is not used.

• The fields and licences are from LBEG, the mining authority for Lower Saxony, Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Bremen and the German part of the North Sea. Fields in Bavaria, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saxony-Anhalt, Thuringia and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania are not at LBEG; 3 of them are included from GEM. LBEG · 8 Oct 2026
• LBEG does not publish shares. The licensees are shown without percentages, and equity production is not calculated. LBEG · 8 Oct 2026
• LBEG gives the field's licensees (INHABER1 and INHABER2), not the operator. OESA shows the first licensee as operator. LBEG · 8 Oct 2026
• Annual production by field is only in the annual reports of LBEG and BVEG, and their terms do not allow reproduction without consent. Only the cumulative production from the LBEG map layer is shown here. LBEG · 8 Oct 2026
• Europipe I and II, Norpipe, Zeepipe and Franpipe come from the Norwegian shelf and are listed with owners and operator at the Norwegian Offshore Directorate. They are shown there and not counted here. LBEG · 8 Oct 2026

Companies

The companies with a stake, operatorship or plants. Calculated production is OESA's estimate (share × production at the same level and for the same period).

Derived operator: The source does not state the operator of the field directly, so OESA has derived it. LBEG gives the field's licensees (INHABER1 and INHABER2), not the operator. OESA shows the first licensee as operator.
