Subsea Integration Alliance awarded EPCI contract offshore UK

The project work scope covers the engineering, procurement, construction and installation of the subsea pipelines (SURF) and production systems (SPS). It includes the first deployment of OneSubsea’s standard, configurable, vertical monobore tree systems in the UK North Sea, which will be deployed via vessel to reduce drill rig days. OneSubsea will deliver two vertical monobore trees, a 2-slot manifold, and associated topside controls. The Alliance worked with bp to develop a technology solution leveraging OneSubsea’s field-proven standard equipment, which is simpler to design and quicker to install when compared with traditional configured-to-order subsea systems.

Subsea7 will install 8 km of rigid flowline and two flexible jumpers, along with associated subsea infrastructure. The new flowline will be tied-back to the Eastern Trough Area Project (ETAP) facility. Fabrication of the pipelines will take place at Subsea7’s spoolbase at Vigra, Norway and offshore operations are expected to be executed in 2025.

Olivier Blaringhem, Chief Executive Officer of Subsea Integration Alliance said: “This is bp’s third fully integrated EPCI project with Subsea Integration Alliance marking an important milestone as we extend our support to the UK North Sea market.”

Hani El Kurd, Senior Vice President for Subsea7 UK & Global Inspection, Repair and Maintenance, said: “We are delighted to be awarded this contract by bp, as it recognises Subsea Integration Alliance’s global reputation for seamless, full subsea system delivery. Subsea7 has a long relationship with bp and we look forward to supporting their Murlach development.”
