The contract begins on 1 July 2015 and has an option for a three-year extension.
"We are looking forward to a fruitful collaboration with Coor Service Management in running and further developing the facility management services on the five Statfjord and Snorre platforms," says Astrid Sørensen, Statoil senior VP for Joint operations.
Statfjord
The Statfjord area is one of the oldest producing fields on the Norwegian continental shelf.
The field has been developed with the Statfjord A, B and C production platforms, which all have concrete gravity base structures incorporating storage cells.The field will remain in production until 2025 and possibilities to further expand the lifetime are being looked into.
Roughly 80,000 b/d of oil are produced by the Statfjord Unit license group, which unites all the licenses and includes all three Statfjord platforms and satellite fields tied in to Statfjord C, and about 4 MMcum/d of gas are exported by the Statfjord Unit.
Snorre
Snorre is located in Blocks 34/4 and 34/7 in the Tampen area of the Norwegian North Sea and embraces two platforms, A and B.
Snorre A is an integrated production, drilling and quarters (PDQ) unit. This tension leg platform (TLP) is moored to the seabed by steel tethers.
The Snorre B platform came on stream in June 2001. This semisubmersible PDQ floater lies about 7km north of the A platform. Oil from Snorre B is piped for 45km to Statfjord B for storage and export.
