Aberdeen-based subsea specialists Reef are to provide decommissioning support for a North Sea pipeline.
The firm’s Polar King vessel will remove the Angus pipeline, across the Fife, Fergus, Flora and Angus fields in the Central North Sea.
Reef will also deliver filtration, suction and down lines to clear the pipe.
The project, which will be managed in-house, is the first decommissioning project of its type the company has been hired for.
“We are delighted to have secured this decommissioning project with HESS Limited in the central North Sea,” said chief executive Duncan MacPherson.
“This demonstrates our ability to provide engineered solutions to operator companies like HESS.
“Our vessel and equipment capabilities are ideal to carry out the scope of work required by the client and our skilled team is highly experienced in this type of operation. We look forward to working with HESS towards a successful completion.”
