(WO) – Petrodec has mobilized its OBANA jackup to start a brand new offshore decommissioning marketing campaign for Perenco UK within the UK Southern North Sea.
The unit has arrived on the Pickerill subject, the place it would take away the jackets from the Pickerill A and B platforms. Following completion of that work, OBANA is scheduled to return to the Amethyst subject to take away the Amethyst A1D jacket as a part of the identical program.
The marketing campaign marks the second main offshore undertaking for OBANA, which entered service earlier this 12 months. The vessel is designed for heavy-lift and multi-structure removing, with a 2,000-tonne crane and the flexibility to deal with massive modules in a single marketing campaign.
Operations are anticipated to run by way of the tip of June, after which the unit will return to shore for offloading and dismantling actions.
Constructed from repurposed drilling rigs with a newly constructed mid-section, OBANA is engineered for decommissioning work in water depths of as much as 65 meters, supporting ongoing North Sea efforts to take away getting older offshore infrastructure.
