In March, the IRM firm secured a multi-million dollar, 12-month frame agreement with Maersk for the provision of its two dive support vessels (DSVs), the Harkand Da Vinci and Harkand Atlantis as well as supporting onshore and offshore personnel.
This award will see Harkand deliver project management and engineering services to the Danish owned oil and gas company around their drill rig program for subsea well plug and abandonment.
The scope of work which is being undertaken by the Harkand Atlantis includes barrier testing at 13 trees, removal of production and gas lift spools at trees and towhead ends along with power and control jumpers and mattress recovery. The works also involves flooding and disconnection of a 4in gas import flowline.
According to Harkand, there’s an estimated 500–690 facilities reaching the end of their operational life over the next three decades.
