Wood Group has won a $1million contract for Statoil’s Utgard field.
The company will carry out the detailed design scope of the subsea tie-back from the field to the Sleipner facilities in the Norwegian North Sea.
The workscope is the first call off under the Mater Service Agreement (MSA) signed in May this year.
The three-year contract will be completed from Wood Group’s offices in Stavanger and Oslo.
Robin Watson, Wood Group’s chief executive, said: “This further cements our strong global relationship with Statoil that is built on trust in our broad portfolio of capabilities and provision of innovative and diverse technical solutions.
“We are excited to continue our work on the next stage of the Utgard field development and will leverage our deep knowledge of the field and the Sleipner facilities, alongside our commitment to working collaboratively with Statoil to ensure success in effective and efficient delivery of this challenging subsea project.”
The Utgard tie-back consists of a 21km long pipe-in-pipe production pipeline from the 4-slot template at Utgard to the Sleipner T platform and an integrated service umbilical (ISU) from the Sleipner A.
The contract builds on Wood Group’s support of the Utgard field development; earlier this year the company completed the front end engineering design (FEED) for the same project.
