July 03, 2015 + +
+ Fjords Processing, headquartered in Norway (Fornebu), has won three
contracts for the deliveries of process systems for the Johan Sverdrup
development in the North Sea. The contracts were signed with Statoil
on behalf of the Johan Sverdrup license. Scope of work within the
contracts entails concept development studies, design, engineering,
fabrication and services of processing technology and expertise:
| Delivery of the oil separation package;
consisting of totally seven separators |
| Delivery of gas dehydration system - including the TEG (triethylene
glycol) regeneration facility |
| Delivery of
electrostatic coalescers to remove water from oil |
The contracts were awarded in tough competition with several larger
international companies. Rune Fantoft, CEO of Fjords Processing
comments: "The contracts are strategically important for Fjords
Processing, being a recently established, Norwegian supplier
."(independent company since the separation from Aker Solutions in
September 2014).
Fantoft continues: "Taking part in the Johan Sverdrup development and
cooperating with Statoil and Aker Solutions is of huge importance for
us and for the Norwegian oil service industry. Though we are a niche,
specialist supplier, we contribute with the vast Norwegian competence
we have built over years, as part of the Aker group and through our
relationship with Statoil. We look forward to continuing our
partnership with these key players".
So far the Norwegian supplier industry has
won the majority of the Johan Sverdrup contracts.
"The Norwegian supplier industry has started
showing that we also can offer competitive conditions compared to
international suppliers. Developing the needed processes and setting
the right priorities is key to meet the contractors' and end clients'
requirements and expectations of cost reductions. A more effective
cooperation with partners and other contractors, will be key to
succeed with ongoing improvements", says Rune Fantoft.
As part of Fjords Processing's strategic
development, the company is looking into the opportunities for
developing integrated offerings - among others, the combination of
technologies to reduce weight and cost.
"Being a supplier with a broad portfolio of
processing wellstream technologies, we aim at designing more
integrated, and thereby more efficient, solutions for our end clients
- including guaranteeing the processing performance", Fantoft says.
The execution of the agreed deliveries will
start in 2015 and will be delivered at the end of 2016.
The separator package and the coalescers
will be managed and manufactured by Midsund Bruk, one of Fjords
Processing's subsidiaries and workshops.
