EMAS AMC has a new frame agreement with Apache North Sea for subsea construction in the UK North Sea.
The awarded frame agreement includes pipeline construction, umbilical/cable lay, structure installation and other related offshore construction services. For rigid pipeline work, EMAS AMC will use their state-of-the-art spool base, currently being established at Halsvik in Norway.
Greig Logistics Group, through its joint venture Gulen Base AS/GW Market AS, contracted with EMAS AMC to build the spoolbase, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year, and will be operated by EMAS. The spoolbase is located in the Gulen industrial harbor area (3D illustration at right from Norconsult).
The frame agreement is for an initial three-year period, with options to extend for an additional two years (3 + 2).
EMAS AMC, the subsea services arm of Ezra Holdings Ltd., will administer the agreement from its office in Stavanger, Norway, and will be supported by Apache’s contract holder for inspection, maintenance, and repairs (IMR), Harkand Europe. Read more: Harkand wins Apache North Sea work, 18 August 2014
