Vysus Group assessing North Sea Oseberg gas scheme issues

Offshore staff

LONDON – Aibel has contracted engineering and technology consultancy Vysus Group to perform safety studies.

These will support Aibel’s five-year agreement with Equinor covering major construction activities at the Oseberg field center in the North Sea. 

Vysus Group’s scope will range from hazard identification studies to consequence modeling and quantitative risk analysis.

The project, presently in the FEED stage, is designed to maximize gas exports from Oseberg via low-pressure production, while minimizing CO₂ emissions.

Remi Martini, principal risk management consultant at Vysus Group, said: “The work being carried out…at the field is crucial to these types of large modifications, which require approval by the relevant petroleum authorities.”
