Mermaid Subsea Services has completed a two-year vessel-based decommissioning campaign in the UK North Sea for an unnamed operator.

The program entailed P&A of 21 wells spread across the UK northern and central North Sea, using Island Offshore's Island Valiant vessel.

Earlier this year, Mermaid concluded the first stage of a three-year North Sea decommissioning contract for Shell UK.

The first phase involved removal of wellheads and protection covers for delivery to the shore for disposal. The next stage is due to start in 2025.
