Statoil has awarded contracts to DNV GL for verification of all 4 topsides, the 3 bridges, 3 of 4 jackets, topside installation by use of the Allseas single lift vessel ‘Pioneering Spirit' and extended site assessment for the jack-up.
Third-party verification gives the operator and the authorities confidence that the project development has the required safety and quality level.
“The contract demonstrates that our investment in technology, service development and efficient operations is making us competitive also in this cost challenged market.
