Neptune successfully completed EverSea's first offshore Oil
& Gas Project
Tuesday 1/09/2015, jack-up platform Neptune
finalised its first Oil & Gas Project. The project,
contracted by GDF SUEZ EP Nederland,
comprised the transportation and installation of
a compression module and a new pedestal
crane on two different offshore gas platforms
located in the Dutch sector of the North Sea.
The compression module and crane elements
were delivered by the client at the port of
Antwerp where they were loaded by the
Neptune crane onto the vessel deck. Upon
completion of mobilisation, Neptune set sail
towards the E17a-A platform, a trip of more
than 400km. On the E17a-A platform the 330T compression module was lifted onto the platform deck and
skidded over a distance of 18m into is final position under the platform helideck.
Once the compression module was positioned to the satisfaction of the client, the Neptune set sail towards
L10-E platform and started installation of the new platform crane.
Neptune is now waiting for a suitable weather window to return to Ostend port were it is expected to arrive on
Thursday 10/09/2015
The successful completion of this challenging project in an industry new to
GeoSea is the result of the great efforts and dedication of the entire Neptune
crew and project staff, who executed the project at the highest standards to
ensure safe and efficient operations. During this project, we have shown our
capability of delivering and meeting expectations within the high demanding oil
and gas environment.
Special thanks go to Werner Lammens (Neptune Master) and the entire
Neptune crew, Sofie Verbeke, Hans Miedema, Benoit Delval, Fernando Gallego
Ahijón, Joshua Collier, Dieter Callaert, Joris Verlent and Diederik Ampe and
many others who contributed to this project.
