Allseas' giant Pioneering Spirit vessel last month removed Shell's Brent Alpha platform topside from the UK North Sea.

The 17,000-tonne Brent Alpha was removed in a single-lift operation.

It was then moved to Able UK’s Teesside decommissioning yard in North East England for dismantling and recycling.

Allseas has now shared the video of the operation:
