Danish based offshore project and engineering company Semco Maritime said on Thursday it has been awarded an engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) contract with Total as part of the Tyra Redevelopment Project in the Danish North Sea.
The Tyra field, which has been the most important gas field in Denmark for decades, processing 90 percent of national gas production, has subsided more than 5 meters over the years and must be redeveloped to secure continued future production.
The Tyra Complex consists of two central processing platforms, Tyra East and Tyra West, and five unmanned satellite production platforms. While the processing platforms are to be completely redeveloped, Semco said its work scope includes preparatory engineering work followed by system installation on the five satellite platforms which will be put into idle mode during the redevelopment phase.
The satellites must be able to perform minor operations and allow for maintenance, inspection and preservation of equipment. Semco Maritime’s scope of work also includes installation of temporary diesel generators on several satellites, and isolation of process systems.
Initial planning work has begun, and the entire project – involving approx. 25 employees – must be completed by October.
During the installation period, two teams of Semco Maritime specialists accommodated on walk-to-work vessels will work in 14-day shifts in order to deliver in due time and quality, said Claus Ross Eilersen, Director, Projects and Services, Semco Maritime.
