Ocean Installer scores Statoil treble

Norway’s Ocean Installer has been awarded three contracts from Statoil for subsea installations and tie-in operations at Johan Sverdrup, Oseberg Vestflanken and Gina Krog.

Ocean Installer will utilise construction support vessels Normand Vision and Normand Mermaid for the work.

At Gina Krog the project is for the fabrication of spools and installation of pipeline end manifold structure, pipeline spools and protection covers. At Oseberg the job is the fabrication of pipeline spools and protection covers, as well as the installation of umbilical, tie-in and pre-commissioning. At Johan Sverdrup work includes the installation of three subsea templates for water injection.

Steinar Riise, CEO of Ocean Installer, commented: “We are truly pleased to have secured these contracts with Statoil in today’s highly competitive market. The awards will contribute to maintaining a good activity level for the Ocean Installer organisation also for next year, and is an opportunity for Ocean Installer to further develop our solid working relationship with Statoil.”

Offshore operations will take place in the second and third quarters of 2017.
