Fossil Energy – Tie Back
Equinor has awarded Aker Solutions with a contract to tie back two gas fields in the Norwegian Sea to the Åsgard B platform.
The Berling tie-in to Åsgard B is an EPCIC project comprising engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning.
Berling is located on the Halten Bank in the Norwegian Sea about 23 kilometers south-east of the Åsgard field.
Two EPCIC scopes define the project: the first starts immediately, and the second in September 2023. Offshore mobilization will begin in November 2025, and the tie-back is to be completed in December 2027. Production start is planned to 2028, Aker Solutions said.
Construction and prefabrication will be executed at the company’s yard in Egersund.
