Semco Maritime to participate in the preparation (hook-up) of Maersk Oil UK’s Culzean high-pressure, high-temperature gas field in the UK sector of the North Sea.
The production units for Culzean, which is 240km east of Aberdeen, are due to arrive from Singapore in the summer of 2018.
Semco Maritime will be responsible for carrying out the electrical work, while the piping and painting work will be carried out by two other companies.
The Culzean complex consists of a central processing platform, a wellhead platform, and a living quarters platform, which are currently under construction at the Sembcorp Marine yard in Singapore.
Production is expected to start in 2019. Semco Maritime set up a team of hook up specialists in Singapore to prepare the installation work in order to have everything planned when the platforms arrive in the North Sea next summer, says Vice President Carsten Nielsen, Semco Maritime.
The offshore work will be performed from an Aberdeen base, where Semco Maritime expects to employ 75-150 people for about 8-9 months.
