OSLO,
Norway, Oct. 4, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --
Norwegian Energy Company ASA ("Noreco" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce the successful offshore lift and of the Tyra II process
module (the "TEG") at 08:27 local time this morning.
The 17,000 metric tons process module was safely lifted
onto the waiting jackets and installed by Heerema Marine
Contractors' Sleipnir – the world's largest crane vessel. Following
the successful lift, all eight platforms are now in their final
position, and Tyra II is several steps closer to producing valuable
natural gas for decades. Over the coming weeks, Sleipnir will lift
and install two bridges and the flare for Tyra II, completing the
project's final offshore lifting and installation campaign.
"We are proud to announce the final major offshore lift and
installation which marks important progress of the Tyra
Redevelopment project. After a month-long voyage from Batam to the
Danish North Sea, the 17,000 tons module was safely lifted and
installed by Sleipnir less than 24 hours after its arrival at the
Tyra field, which is ahead of plan. The lift itself broke a world
record, as the heaviest crane lift conducted at sea. I'm impressed
by the team's planning, precision and timing, meaning that we can
finally say that all modules are in place. The TEG has always been
a critical part of the project, and now being installed the risk
profile changes significantly. With remaining execution taking
place solely at the Tyra field we are today several steps closer to
a near -doubling of production from the DUC with Tyra onstream next
winter," said Marianne
Eide, Chief Operating Officer in Noreco.
