Allseas selected to remove 48,000 t Statfjord A platform

Equinor Energy on behalf of the Statfjord A Unit, has awarded Allseas a contract for the removal, transfer, load-in to shore and disposal of the 48,000 t Statfjord A platform topsides. Allseas’ record-breaking heavy lift and pipelay vessel Pioneering Spirit    will remove the topsides from its concrete gravity based substructure in one piece after 2022.

One of the largest platforms on the Norwegian continental shelf, Statfjord A stands in 149 m (490 ft) of water in the centre of the Statfjord field, located in the northern North Sea, approximately 120 miles west of Bergen. The 84 m long, 54 m wide topsides has a weight equal to Pioneering Spirit’s single-lift capacity.
