Rrecoverable reserves in Gina Krog total 16.8 million m3 of oil, 11.8 billion m3 of gas and 3.2 million t of natural gas liquids. The field was developed with a production facility resting on the seabed and an oil storage ship at a water depth of 110 - 120 m. The oil is exported via buoy loaders, and the gas is sent to the Sleipner A platform for final processing. Gas for injection is imported from Zeepipe 2A (Gassled).

Gina Krog has been prepared for phasing in current and future discoveries in the area, and will be tied in to a planned joint solution to supply the Utsira High with power from shore. This will be in place in 2022.
