"We've passed an important milestone in the development of NOA Fulla. These are the first major contracts to be awarded in the field development. Now we are getting started on further developing the concept of platforms, production systems and flowlines on the seabed. We are also developing a solution for power from shore that will pave the way for minimal greenhouse gas emissions from operations of the field. This is just the beginning of a field development that will have great significance for activity in the Norwegian supplier industry," says SVP NOAKA Lars Høier in
The NOAKA area includes NOA, Fulla and Krafla.
The development concept for NOA Fulla consists of a process, drilling and living quarters platform (PdQ) on NOA, a normally unmanned wellhead platform (NUI) on Frøy and three subsea templates for development of Fulla, Langfjellet and Rind. The entire area will receive power from shore, which will minimise greenhouse gas emissions.
An alliance project
"NOA Fulla will be carried out in the alliance model, a model where we work side-by-side with strategic partners with common goals and incentives. We have a strong track record using this model, and we see clear improvements as regards efficiency and quality. Therefore, we believe that this is the key to implementing profitable projects in a demanding market going forward," says
The largest FEED contract relates to the PdQ platform. The platform will receive and transmit power from shore. It will process the oil from the fields and export it via the Oseberg Transport System (OTS), while the gas will be exported via Statpipe. Oil and produced water from
