Wood Group inked for Brent Bravo decom prep

Shell has awarded Wood Group a contract in support of its decommissioning the Brent Bravo platform in the UK North Sea.

Effective immediately, Wood Group will prepare the platform for removal via a single lift using the Pioneering Spirit heavy lift vessel, which earlier this month removed the Brent Delta topsides.

The preparation work will include conductor removal, structural strengthening and installation of under deck lift points, in addition to the modifications required to enable the platform to operate on minimum manning mode.

Dave Stewart, CEO for Wood Group’s Asset Life Cycle Solutions business in the Eastern region, said: “We will leverage our learnings from the delivery of the Brent Delta decommissioning scope.  Our commitment is to continuing to work in partnership with Shell to ensure the safe, cost efficient and timely execution of the contract.”
