Responsible for the conceptual study and costing of the above decommissioning study for BP.

As NWH is one of the larger platforms in the North Sea and decommissioning represents a relatively new arena we were challenged with developing new technologies and indeed operational methods to facilitate cost effective decommissioning whilst ensuring no accidents or harm to the environment.

WGE Project Manager - Unity Re-Instrumentation

Unity platform is an integral part of the Forties Pipeline System. The platform is effectively a pigging station for the five fields feeding it and carries from 550,000 to 800,000 barrels per day dependent on the entrants production levels. The project objectives were to replace the ESD, DCS, F & G systems and the power generation to improve reliability of the platform.

Whilst BP subcontracted the system architecture design WGE have been responsible for all field interface design, implementation and commissioning of the project. Due to the strategic importance of the platform production it was imperative that the project was implemented whilst the platform was operational. This was achieved (19000 Hrs liquidated) with no loss of production and no safety incidents.
