He might be able to bust through, but the time he'd take doing it would leave him open to Surfer's blast of red sunlight. And if the field itself is made of red sunlight...

And when has Post Crisis Supes EASILY shattered Force Fields from someone with Surfer's abilities at making them? I seem to remember them holding up to repeated strikes from a Bannerless Hulk and withstanding a blast from WM Thor w/Power Gem.

I can all but guarantee that his powers were attributed to the absorption and storing of energy from a yellow sun. I can research to make sure if you insist, but if/when I track down a scan saying so I'll expect you to actually concede the point on the matter because of the work involved.

It sounds like you're talking about current Supes again. If so, what does Supes say to Triumph in this scan...
