LYSAKER, Norway — Aker BP has awarded Multiconsult Norge a NOK 400 million ($37.43 million) contract to perform civil engineering, consultancy and supervision services for the power-from-shore project for the multi-field Yggdrasil development in the Norwegian North Sea.
The work scope runs through year-end 2027.
Earlier this year Norway’s Ministry of Petroleum and Energy gave Aker BP a license to connect the platforms in the Yggdrasil area to the power grid in Samnanger, Vestland County.
The concept includes installation of a new transformer station at Børdalen in Samnanger, a new 11-km 145-kV power line in Samnanger, a compensation station at Årskog in Fitjar, and a 250-km subsea cable from Samnanger to the Yggdrasil area.
Multiconsult will perform onshore civil engineering for the power-from-shore system and provide consultancy and supervision services connected to the preparation/follow-up of the power license, including environmental assessments, dialogue with authorities, required applications and site work.
