Bibby Offshore has secured a contract to deliver subsea construction works for oil company Taqas Eider field located nearly 184km north-east of Shetland, offshore UK. <\/p>\n
Under the six-month contract, Bibby Offshore will deploy its subsea support and construction vessel Olympic Ares and diving support vessel Bibby Polaris to undertake a multi-vessel approach. <\/p>\n
Offshore operations at the field are scheduled to be complete this year. <\/p>\n
Bibby Offshore United Kingdom Continental Shelf managing director Barry Macleod said: Our multi-vessel approach enabled the project team to tailor our capabilities to Taqas requirements, which plays a key role in demonstrating our ability to successfully deliver a variety of workscopes. <\/p>\n
\"Offshore operations at the field are scheduled to be complete this year.\" <\/p>\n
We have supported Taqas operations previously and are delighted to have been selected to continue and strengthen this relationship throughout 2017. <\/p>\n
As part of the project, the existing Otter Production pipeline will be connected to the established Eider Oil Export pipeline. <\/p>\n
The company will also use subsea bypass spools to connect theTern-Eider water injection pipeline to the Otter water injection pipeline. <\/p>\n
In addition, Bibby Offshore will deliver spool piece metrology, barrier testing, removal of existing production and water injection spools and provide pre-commissioning support. <\/p>\n
