It said the company was working with financial advisers but that no final decision has been taken, and that the company may also decide against the sale.
A spokesman for Total declined to comment.
The Martin Linge oil field offshore Norway is expected to start production in early 2018.
Total's partners in the field are Statoil ASA (NYSE: STO) and Norwegian state-owned firm Petoro.
