Aker Solutions Wins Topside Modification Contract for ConocoPhillips' Tommeliten Alpha Development
Aker Solutions Wins Topside Modification Contract for ConocoPhillips' Tommeliten Alpha Development
September 10, 2021 - Aker Solutions has been awarded a large[1] topside
modification contract by ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS for Tommeliten Alpha,
offshore Norway. Combined with previous subsea contracts for this field
development, the contract award means Aker Solutions has been assigned an
integrated responsibility for this field development.
The topside modification contract award follows final investment decision by the
license partners and the completion of the front-end engineering and design
(FEED) work, awarded in October 2020 (https://www.akersolutions.com/news/news
-archive/2020/aker-solutions-wins-feed-contract-for-conocophillips-tommeliten
-alpha-development/). The scope includes engineering, procurement, construction,
and installation (EPCI) work for topside modifications on some Ekofisk
installations, to tie-back and integrate the Tommeliten Alpha field development
to the existing infrastructure.
The work will be led by Aker Solutions' offices in Fornebu and Stavanger, and
includes construction work at the companies yard in Egersund, as well as
offshore work at the Ekofisk Complex. Work starts immediately with planned
completion in the third quarter of 2023.
"We look very much forward to working together with the field operator
ConocoPhillips on this important field development. Aker Solutions has leading
expertise in subsea solutions and topside modifications and we expect increased
activity for tie-back projects moving forward," said Kjetel Digre, chief
executive officer of Aker Solutions.
Aker Solutions was previously awarded contracts for the subsea production
system (https://www.akersolutions.com/news/news-archive/2020/aker-solutions-to
-provide-subsea-production-system-for-tommeliten-alpha-development-in-norway/)
as well as umbilicals and direct electrical heating (DEH) systems for Tommeliten
Alpha. This means Aker Solutions, to date, has won contracts with a combined
value of more than NOK 2.7 billion for this field development.
Tommeliten Alpha is a discovery in the southern part of the Norwegian sector in
the North Sea, approximately 25 kilometers southwest of the Ekofisk field. The
water depth is 75 meters. The discovery was proven in 1977. The reservoir
contains a gas condensate fluid and lies at a depth of about 3,000 meters.
Aker Solutions will book about NOK 1.2 billion as order intake in the third
quarter of 2021 in the Electrification, Maintenance and Modifications segment.
The Tommeliten Alpha development is subject to final regulatory approval by
Norwegian and UK authorities.
[1]Aker Solutions defines a large contract as being between NOK 1.2 billion and
NOK 2.0 billion.
