Technip has signed a lumpsum contract with Statoil for the Gullfaks Rimfaksdalen (GRD) Marine Operations Pipelay and Subsea Installation project.

This project is an option to the Sn酶hvit CO₂ Solution project awarded in 2013.

The GRD project scope consists of a subsea tie-back to a new Wye piece on an existing pipeline close to the Gullfaks A platform. The GRD template will be located 190 km Northwest of Bergen, Norway.

This contract covers:

• Fabrication and installation of two sections of pipe-in-pipe, total length approximately 9.5 km, with a 13% chrome stainless steel production flowline.
• Installation and tie-ins of three spools and an 8.5 km umbilical.
• Installation of an approximately 280 t template and a 110 t manifold.

Technip鈥檚 operating centre in Oslo, Norway, will execute the project. Vessels from the company鈥檚 fleet will install the template in 2015. The flowline will be welded at Technip鈥檚 spoolbase in Orkanger, Norway, while the installation will be performed by the Apache II. First gas is planned for the second half of 2016.

Odd Str酶msnes, Managing Director of Technip in Norway, stated: 鈥淲e are very proud of this award, which builds on our unique track record in pipe-in-pipe.鈥�
