This FPSO vessel is located 193km east of Aberdeen, at a water depth of approximately 90m. It produces oil and gas from different fields - Bittern, Guillemot West and North West, Clapham, Pict and Saxon, which are tied back to the FPSO vessel via subsea facilities comprising a series of pipelines and manifolds.

As part of replacement of existing subsea assets, Technip’s scope of work covers project management and engineering, including:

  • Installation of two flexible risers: one of 9in and one of 6in
  • Fabrication and installation of one dynamic umbilical riser,
  • Removal and recovery of existing assets at the FPSO vessel,
  • Additional installation, repair and maintenance (IRM) works.

Technip’s operating center in Aberdeen, United Kingdom (UK), will execute this contract, which is a continuation of similar work successfully completed in 2014.

Technip Umbilicals will manufacture the umbilical at its plant in Newcastle, UK, while the group’s diving support vessel Orelia will undertake the installation campaign.

Joint venture partners in Triton are Dana Petroleum (E&P) (51.966%), Shell U.K. (26.42%), Esso Exploration and Production UK (20%) and Endeavour Energy UK (1.614%).
