Heerema Fabrication Group (HFG) has been awarded the procurement and construction contract for Noble Energy's Leviathan development vent boom under Heerema Marine Contractors' transport and installation contract.
This project marks the second contract for a Noble Energy project after being awarded the Tamar vent boom in 2012.
Construction is due to start in Q1 2018 at the Heerema yard in Zwijndrecht, the Netherlands, in order to be ready for sail away Q2 2019.
The vent boom will be more than 130m-long and will be lifted into position offshore by Heerema Marine Contractors' newest heavy lift vessel Sleipnir.
The Leviathan gas field is about 125km west of Haifa, Israel, and 35km west of the Tamar field, in the Eastern Mediterranean Levantine Basin.
The project will be a subsea production system connecting high-rate subsea wells to a fixed platform. The subsea production system and fixed platform will be designed to accommodate up to 2100 MMscf/d.
