HOUSTON – Statoil has ordered a workover system from FMC Technologies for installation on the Snorre B platform in the Norwegian North Sea. The contract value is around $114 million.
The new (replacement) equipment will help Statoil perform intervention activities to increase performance and oil recovery from theSnorre field’s subsea wells.
“This workover system is designed to support Statoil’s standardized subsea equipment and its scheduling program for Snorre B,” said Tore Halvorsen, FMC Technologies’ senior vice president, Subsea Technologies. “By standardizing the workover system, rig time can be more efficiently allocated, reducing costs, and enhancing productivity.”
