Aker Solutions Wins Subsea Contracts for Dvalin Gas Field
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
October 4, 2016 - Aker Solutions secured two contracts worth at least NOK 900
million from DEA Norge to deliver the subsea production system, maintenance and
services at the Dvalin natural gas development offshore Norway.
The first order is for a production system encompassing a manifold, four subsea
trees and a 15-kilometer long umbilical that will connect to the adjacent
Heidrun platform. It also covers wellheads, controls, tie-in and workover
systems and options for further subsea production tie-back connections to
Heidrun. Initial deliveries are slated for the first half of 2018.
The companies also agreed on a five-year framework contract for maintenance and
servicing of all subsea production systems ordered under the first agreement,
including installation and commissioning services. The contract may be extended
by three-year periods.
"Dvalin is DEA's first development as an operator in Norway and we look forward
to working together to sustainably maximize the full potential of this field,"
said Luis Araujo, chief executive officer of Aker Solutions.
The value of the subsea production system as well as related installation and
commissioning services is about NOK 900 million and will be booked in fourth-
quarter orders. The size of the framework agreement depends on the amount of
work necessary and orders will be booked as they come in.
The work will primarily be carried out in Norway, with management, engineering
and procurement for the subsea production system handled at in Fornebu. Subsea
trees will be delivered from the plant in Tranby, manifolds from the Egersund
yard, the umbilical from the factory in Moss and controls systems from Aberdeen,
in the UK. Maintenance and services will be provided by the company's service
base in Ågotnes, Norway.
The Dvalin field, formerly named Zidane, will be developed as a subsea tieback
to the adjacent Heidrun platform in the Norwegian Sea. Gas from the field will
be transported via Heidrun through the Polarled pipeline to the Nyhavna
processing plant before being sent to the European market.
