Field/project development
Vår Energi ASA and partners have officially sanctioned the Previously Produced Fields Project in the Greater Ekofisk Area. The redevelopment is expected to add high-value barrels starting in 2028, extending the production life of one of Norway’s key offshore regions.
The company engineered, designed, and manufactured multiple internal floating roof systems and tank-top equipment packages for TotalEnergies’ new storage terminal in Equatorial Guinea.
Fugro’s entry into the UK’s small modular reactor market follows its breakthrough in the US, where it secured a contract in February to perform a geoscience site investigation for the recommissioned Palisades Nuclear Power Plant in Michigan.
