Statoil has awarded Technip two lump sum contracts for infield pipeline construction for the Johan Sverdrup development and the Oseberg Vestflanken 2 projects, Technip said in a news release.

The first development phase for the Johan Sverdrup Field is targeted to be on-stream in 2019. The Oseberg Vestflanken 2 project is a development of the oil and gas structures Alfa, Gamma and Kappa, located northwest of the Oseberg field center, the release said.

The contracts cover fabrication and installation of 29 km of plastic-lined 16-in. water injection flowlines for Johan Sverdrup and fabrication and installation of 7.5 km of 14-in. production pipeline and 9 km of 10-in. gas injection pipeline for Oseberg Vestflanken 2, the release said.

The flowlines will be welded and fabricated at the Technip spoolbase in Orkanger, Norway. Installation will be carried out by Technip’s reel-lay vessel Deep Energy during the second half of 2017.
