The Búzios-5 production system is planned to include the interconnection of 15 wells to a floating production, storage, and offloading vessel in two phases. -
Askeladd Vest is Phase 2 of the Snøhvit gas development, which is expected to see an FID this year.
-
Delivery of the umbilicals is expected in Q4 2021. The King’s Quay FPS achieved FID in Q2 2019, and is expected to process up to 80,000 B/D of crude oil with first production in 2022.

Sleipner’s share in net-zero emissions savings will be more than 150,000 tonnes per year.
-
The FPSO vessel will reduce capital expenditure and breakeven costs and increase commercially feasibility, leading to FID.

McDermott’s completion comes 19 months after it was first awarded. SapuraOMV achieved first production from the Larak gas field in January.
-
Petrofac’s well management contract comes nearly a month after IOG received approval for phase 1. The contract also follows an EPC contract awarded to Subsea 7 in May.
-
Delays and disruptions have stymied project plans in the past few months. How will companies prevent current stresses from morphing into catastrophic issues?
-
An investment decision this year would sanction Norway’s first CO2 storage project. Phase 1 is expected to be operational in 2024.
-
North Sea system now on track for completion in Q2 2021.
