The guitarist, 57, and his brother Liam, 51, announced Tuesday that they will reunite on stage for the first time in 15 years to perform in the UK and Ireland.
Noel was spotted heading to his recording studio in North London on Wednesday and it looked like things were in full swing on Thursday.
A crew member was photographed carrying two guitars into the studio, complete with a worn case bearing the Oasis logo.
Photography and lighting equipment was also carried inside, suggesting that photography or filming was about to begin.

Oasis are rumoured to be announcing even more dates for their long-awaited reunion tour, which music experts say will “sell out in less than three minutes”.
The band, who will be rejoined by their original guitarist Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs, will play 14 shows in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Dublin next summer.
Tickets for the Oasis Live 25 tour go on sale Saturday at 9am. A pre-sale will take place on Friday for select fans who will be selected from a voting pool.
More than four million fans are expected to compete for the 1,066,888 tickets available for the 14 concerts, and sources told The Sun that once they sell out, “additional dates will be added for sure”.
Industry sources have also claimed that Bonehead is “confirmed” for the tour and “ecstatic” that the band is back together.
Both Liam and Noel Gallagher reportedly “wanted to have him in their ranks” after he was “one of the driving forces behind the reunion.”
Oasis split in 2009 after many years of infighting, and Noel officially quit the band just before a performance at a festival near Paris, saying at the time that he “simply couldn’t continue working with Liam for another day”.
Even before their disbandment 15 years ago, the brothers had long had an antagonistic relationship and reportedly did not speak to each other for years after the breakup.

Fans have been calling for the brothers to reunite ever since they split up and are now gearing up for what they have hailed as the “bloodbath of the century.”
“Tickets for these shows will sell out in less than three minutes. Additional dates will likely be added,” a source told The Sun.
Liam and Noel confirmed Oasis’ long-awaited reunion with a tour in 2025 and also alluded to past tensions in the tour announcement on Tuesday.
“The guns have fallen silent,” Oasis said. “The stars have aligned. The long wait is over. Come see it. It won’t be televised.”
As part of the announcement, a black-and-white image of the two brothers, both wearing dark jackets, was also posted.
The Britpop band, who split almost 15 years ago and released their chart-topping Definitely Maybe album some three decades ago, have announced the run of dates will kick off at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
The UK and Ireland tour will also visit Manchester’s Heaton Park, London’s Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin’s Croke Park during July and August next year.
