Aker BP has awarded Allseas a call-off for removal and disposal of multiple installations in the Valhall area in the Norwegian North Sea from 2021 to 2026. The work comprises removal and disposal of the Valhall DP- PCP- and Hod topsides and jackets. Additionally, Aker BP has invoked the option for removal and disposal of Valhall QP jacket and 2/4-G jacket on Ekofisk field.
All installations will be removed by Allseas Pioneering Spirit heavy-lift vessel.
The contract is the latest award triggered by Aker BP under terms of the frame agreement signed with Allseas in 2017 to provide transport, installation and removal services for Valhall oil field.
In June 2019, the topside of the original accommodation platform at Valhall (QP) was removed by Pioneering Spirit. This was the first of the three original structures (QP, PCP, DP) at Valhall to be removed as part of the modernization of Valhall field center.
