Bibby Offshore finishes subsea work for Maersk Oil

Bibby Offshore, a UK-based subsea services provider to the oil & gas industry, has completed a multi-million-pound contract with Maersk Oil.

Bibby said on Wednesday that the company provided Maersk with subsea structure and pipeline inspection support in the UKCS.

The four-week campaign, completed in October this year, saw Bibby’s subsea support and construction vessel, Olympic Bibby, operate across Maersk Oil’s Gryphon and Dumbarton fields in the North Sea. The workscope was also supported by Bibby Offshore’s project management team based in Westhill, Aberdeen.

Barry Macleod, UKCS managing director of Bibby Offshore, said: “Securing this contract was a direct result of work we previously carried out for Maersk Oil and demonstrates the company’s confidence in our ability to successfully, and safely, deliver efficient services.

“We believe this agreement is a vote of confidence for the UK North Sea and the strategy of maximising economic recovery.”

As for previous work, the Olympic Bibby completed two contracts in the North Sea, one for Perenco and another for Endeavour Energy UK back in July.
