Kongsberg Maritime win contract for North Sea field

Member of the Marginal Field Delivery Consortium, Kongsberg Maritime, has been awarded an order for delivery of the Safety and Automation System (SAS), Life Cycle Simulator and SAS Information Management System for the four platforms on the Johan Sverdrup field centre, in the North Sea.

As part of the Project Specific Agreement, Kongsberg Maritime will  also participate with integrated engineering services to various contractors for Johan Sverdrup, and will support installation and commissioning of the delivered systems.

Geir Håøy, President, Kongsberg said: “The order demonstrates Kongsberg Maritime’s strong capabilities and our solid position within topside automation for offshore Oil and Gas production units, reflected in the market through significant contract wins”.

Safety and Automation System, Life Cycle Simulator and SAS Information Management Systems will be core components of the overall remote system that will enable our marginal field solutions to operate normally unattended. The OPEX reductions this delivers will be crucial to unlocking previously uneconomic resources.

The selection of Kongsberg Maritime’s technology for four platforms in the North Sea demonstrates their capability to automate topside operations and adds to the credibility of using such systems for marginal field development.
