Aberdeen’s Boskalis seals pipeline contract
Aberdeen-b as edBosk al is Sub sea Services has sealed a multi-million-pound contract with Perenco UK to support a pipeline project in the UK’S Southern North Sea basin.
One of the firm’s dive sup - port vessels, the Boka Da Vinci, was mobilised to replace a 29-metre section of pipeline, which delivers hydrocarbons from the NW Bell field to the Bessemer Platform.
The hydrocarbons are then delivered to the Bacton Gas terminal in Norfolk via the Inde Field for processing and
on ward distribution to the National Grid.
Tim Sheehan, global business development and strategy director for Boskalis Subsea Services, said: “This marks our first saturation diving project with Perenco.
“The southern sector of the North Sea is a highly tidal region with relatively shallow water depths resulting in narrow windows of opportunity for carrying out subsea remedial work. Our state-of-the-art vessels are well equipped to support the many challenges.”
