The agreement covers modifications of the Sleipner A and Sleipner T platforms as part of the Gudrun field development. The agreement includes engineering, purchasing, fabrication and installation of equipment.
Sleipner will process oil and gas from Gudrun in addition to supplying power to the Gudrun platform. The gas will be processed on Sleipner A before it is transported to Sleipner T for carbon dioxide removal. The gas will be transported to the gas markets from Sleipner A.
The oil is received at Sleipner A for stabilization. Water and salts are removed before export to the Karsto processing plant north of Stavanger.
The Gudrun field contains around 127 million barrels of oil equivalent. The contract for constructing the steel jacket has already been awarded to Aker Solutions, and the contract for transport and installation of the jacket and the topside has been awarded to Saipem.
