(Adds more on Sture facilities in last paragraph)

OSLO, June 9 (Reuters) - StatoilHydro (STL.OL) has shut six
oil and gas fields offshore Norway for planned repairs along
with its Sture oil terminal, in line with an earlier released
schedule, it said on Tuesday.

StatoilHydro declined to say when the facilities were
expected to restart following their turnaround repairs.

Below are the names of the shut fields along with production
forecasts from the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD).
Field name Forecast production in 2009

oil natural gas natural gas liquids (NGL)

(bbl/day) (cubic metres) (tonnes)
Oseberg 75,000 3.23 billion 0.50 mln
Grane 148,000
Huldra 3,000 0.83 billion
Veslefrikk 13,000

Sture is part of the Oseberg transport centre and recieves
oil and condensate from Oseberg, Veslefrikk, Brage, Oseberg
Soer, Oseberg Oest, Tune, Huldra and Grane fields.

The terminal began operating in December 1988. It is able to
berth oil tankers up to 300,000 tonnes and has five rock caverns
for storing crude oil with a combined capacity of 1 million
cubic metres and a 60,000 cubic metre cavern for LPG storage.

Sture also includes a fractionation plant which processes
"unstabilised crude from Oseberg into stabilised oil and an LPG
blend", according to the NPD. The LPG blend can either be
exported by ship or sent through the Vestprosess pipeline
linking Norwegian refineries in Kollsnes, Stura and Mongstad.
