Wintershall Norge has awarded a USD 300 Million contract for the Maria field development to Subsea 7.
The field is located in the Norwegian Sea at a water depth of approximately 300 metres.
Pipeline and Subsea Construction
The pipeline and subsea construction contract consists of engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of 95 kilometres of rigid flowlines and associated structures to develop the Maria field.
Project management and engineering work will commence immediately at Subsea 7's offices in Stavanger, Norway. Offshore activities will utilise a variety of Subsea 7 vessels, including the new-build vessel, Seven Arctic.
Offshore operations are scheduled to commence in 2016 and are expected to be completed in 2017. The pipeline production for clad, mechanically lined pipe (BuBi), plastic lined and carbon steel pipelines will take place at Subsea 7's spoolbase at Vigra, Norway.
