Edvard Grieg module loadout

Published

In this video, Lundin Petroleum shows the loading of the 16,000-tonne of steel and equipment comprised of both the main deck module and the process module for the Edvard Grieg platform onto barges, that occurred in the last days of March 2015.

On 14 April, the company announced that the 22,000-tonne topside for the new offshore platform for the Edvard Grieg field is ready for delivery.

The topside consists of a main deck module, a combined utility module and living quarters, a process module and a flare tower. The main deck module and the combined utility module and living quarters have both been moved to barges at Stord, ready for tow-out to the field. The process module is also ready on a barge at Aker Solutions in Egersund, Norway, and the flare tower is completed and ready for delivery directly offshore from the subcontractor in Poland.

The Edvard Grieg field is located in the Utsira High area in the central North Sea.

The next phase of the operation is to transport all modules for the topside out to the field in the North Sea offshore Norway. When on site, the modules will be lifted and mounted onto the steel jacket substructure, which is already in place.
