Wood will deliver the detailed design of subsea pipelines for Equinor’s Halten Øst project offshore Norway.

Halten Øst is a multi-field development which is estimated to hold approximately 100 million barrels of oil equivalent of hydrocarbons, mostly gas. The development will utilise existing facilities and infrastructure as well as a new subsea pipeline system to tie-back to the Åsgard B platform in the Norwegian sea.

The scope will be executed by Wood’s subsea and pipeline engineering specialists in Norway, following the successful delivery of the concept design and front-end engineering design scopes. The contract was awarded under an evergreen master services agreement for engineering services with Equinor.

Matt Kirk, Wood’s President of Specialist Engineering and Consulting, said: “Wood has been delivering subsea engineering and technology solutions to Equinor for more than 30 years. We are delighted to support the development of the Halten Øst project and the role it will play in supplying secure energy across Europe.

“We have developed a strong relationship with Equinor, one that is built on trust and confidence in our delivery, and we look forward to continuing our global track record in supporting Equinor to realise the full potential of their assets and portfolios.”
