Neptune Energy has awarded, on behalf of the Gjøa license, a contract to Rosenberg WorleyParsons for construction and installation of a new Nova topside module on the Gjøa platform in the North Sea, the company said on May 18.
The engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning contract awarded is for the topside section of the Nova development. Wintershall as the operator of Nova has decided to develop the field with two subsea modules tied back to the Gjøa platform for processing and export develop. The Gjøa platform is operated by Neptune Energy.
The modification project will last until 2021 and will give a peak manning for engineering and construction of about 300 people. The services will be led and executed from Rosenberg WorleyParsons in Stavanger.
The work starts immediately and is a continuation of the FEED phase already conducted by Rosenberg WorleyParsons.
“We are pleased to award such a significant contract to Rosenberg WorleyParsons, who have already delivered major milestones under the FEED phase of this important development project on the Norwegian Continental Shelf,” Anne Botne, Neptune Energy’s country director for Norway, said. “The tieback from Nova validates our initial design for Gjøa as a hub for the wider area, and we look forward to continued cooperation with Wintershall and other project partners.”
