ABERDEEN -- Acergy has awarded MCS a subsea contract for the Volund field, offshore Norway.

Under the contract, handled by the company's specialist pipelines team in Aberdeen, MCS will perform detailed upheaval buckling analysis of a water injection flowline located in the Volund field.

The project involves analyzing a 12-km (7.4-mi) water injection flexible flowline routed from a choke and metering skid, adjacent to the Alvheim East riser base, to the water injection wellhead at the Volund field in water depths of 120 m (394 ft).
