Corinth Pipeworks has been awarded a contract by ONE-Dyas B.V. to provide High Frequency Welded (HFW) steel pipes for the N05-A platform. The N05-A platform is located in the North Sea, about 20 kilometers north of the Ems estuary.
This offshore gas production project will run entirely on renewable energy from the nearby Riffgat wind farm, which makes for an active contribution to the energy transition and to achieving the goals of the Climate Agreement.
The contract covers approximately 16km of 20” diameter & 20.6mm wall thickness, High Frequency Welded (HFW)
linepipe, including external 3-layer polypropylene coating and concrete weight coating applied at the same location as pipe manufacturing. The HFW pipes will be manufactured in Corinth’s facility in Greece and delivered within 2023.
Furthermore, the pipeline will be certified according to the ASME B31.12 Option B code for hydrogen pipelines, supporting the plans for future transportation of up to 100% hydrogen.
This project is important in the effort to reduce the environmental footprint of natural gas production with the assistance of electricity from renewable sources, such as offshore wind farms. Electricity from the wind farm will be able to be converted into green hydrogen and transported via pipelines to the onshore grid.

Gas pipeline to meet growing demand for reliable energy in East Mediterranean
Allseas will return to the East Mediterranean in the third quarter of 2024 to execute the installation scope for phase one of the Tamar expansion project.
Solitaire and Oceanic will carry out the work comprising approximately 150 kilometres of 20-inch pipeline from the Tamar field to the Tamar platform and a mix of small and large subsea structures in water depths ranging from 240 to 1660 metres.
Discovered in 2009, development of the Tamar gas reservoir was fast-tracked to meet local demand for natural gas. Allseas played a key role in the original development, installing over 350 kilometres of pipeline between 2010 and 2011 for then operator Noble Energy Mediterranean Ltd.
Allseas’ scope also covers the design, fabrication and installation of two PLETs, four jumpers and 19 crossing structures, installation of umbilicals and pre-commissioning the pipeline system (flooding, gauging, testing, dewatering and nitrogen purging).

Keppel O&M to deliver Guyana's third FPSO
Keppel Offshore & Marine’s (Keppel O&M) wholly-owned subsidiary Keppel Shipyard Ltd (Keppel Shipyard) is on track to deliver a mega Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO) to SBM Offshore in 1Q 2023. This is the third FPSO that Keppel Shipyard is delivering to SBM Offshore and will be chartered to the consortium of ExxonMobil, CNOOC, and Hess to operate in offshore Guyana.
The vessel was named Prosperity FPSO by Guest of Honour, Her Excellency Mrs Arya Ali, the First Lady of the Co-operative Republic of Guyana at a ceremony held today at Keppel Shipyard.
Mr Chris Ong, CEO of Keppel O&M, said, “We are pleased to support SBM Offshore and ExxonMobil in contributing to Guyana’s oil and gas industry with a third FPSO for deployment in the Stabroek block. FPSO Prosperity reinforces Keppel O&M’s standing as the world leader in the integration of FPSOs and extends our track record of more than 130 FPSO projects. It also marks our 27th major project for SBM Offshore, building on the strong partnership that we have forged over decades of collaboration.”
Keppel O&M’s scope of work on FPSO Prosperity includes the fabrication of several topside modules, riser, mooring and umbilical structures, followed by the installation and integration of these structures and all topside modules onto the FPSO.
The FPSO, which will be spread moored in water depth of about 1,900 metres, is designed to produce 220,000 barrels of oil per day, with associated gas treatment capacity of 400 million cubic feet per day and water injection capacity of 250,000 barrels per day. The FPSO will be able to store approximately 2 million barrels of crude oil.
