Creative solutions for complex challenges

Around the globe, there is an increasing number of offshore facilities reaching the end of their lifetime. We take on the responsibility of a successful decommissioning process with integrated Engineering, Preparations, Removal, and Disposal (EPRD) services.

You are in safe hands, and we deliver predictable execution by getting involved early to understand associated risks. We also examine all aspects of projects in our onshore Simulation Center. These measures ensure we deliver fully engineered and risk-assessed solutions to reduce exposure for our clients.

If the tools don't exist,
we make them

In-house innovation and collaboration with our suppliers are essential for tackling the unique challenges decommissioning presents.

Recent developments include our Subsea Excavator, as well as the collaborative 288” Diamond Wire Cutting tool and the procurement of 4,000 metric ton Internal Lifting Tools.
