Trollkjelen (Norwegian for Trollkessel ) is a 19 km long area of crevasses in the Fimbul Ice Shelf on the Princess Martha coast of the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . It is just off the northeastern side of the Trollkjelneset headland .

Norwegian cartographers, who also named the area, mapped it using geodetic surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960) from 1958 to 1959.
