Technip Awarded Contract for NCS Subsea Infrastructure

France-based Technip confirms its positive trend on Tuesday, when it was awarded a contract for the extension of subsea infrastructure on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. 

"This award confirms our leading position as contractor for diving operations in the North Sea. This project will be the second one awarded to Technip for the extension of the existing infrastructure on the Alvheim field, the first one having been executed in 2012 and 2013. We are looking forward to continuing and consolidating our collaboration with Marathon through this project,” Odd Strømsnes, Managing Director at Technip in Norway, commented in a note.

The contract awarded by Marathon Oil Norge includes installation, engineering and other subsea operations, which will mainly be performed with divers at a water-depth of approximately 120 meters. 

‘The offshore campaigns will take place in 2014, 2015 and 2016,’ explains the company.
