HOUSTONTAQA has awarded OneSubsea an EPCIC contract for a subsea multi-phase boosting system for the Otter oil field in the UK northern North Sea.

OneSubsea and itsalliance partner Subsea 7 will supply and install the equipment and associated topsides and subsea controls, and other life-of-field services, for the 30-km (18.6-mi) subsea tieback to the TAQA-operated North Cormorant platform.

This will be the longest subsea multi-phase boosting tieback in the UK North Sea.

Mike Garding, president, OneSubsea, Schlumberger, said the system “will improve TAQA’s ultimate recovery from an existing asset, through a capital-efficient long tieback.”

This is a turnkey integrated project from design through supply, installation, and commissioning.
