Bilfinger Extends Hammerfest LNG Maintenance Agreement with Statoil (Norway)

The engineering and services group Bilfinger said it has extended comprehensive framework agreement for the maintenance of Statoil’s LNG export terminal near the Norwegian city of Hammerfest.

The agreement with Statoil runs for a period of three years.

At the gas liquefaction plant on the island of Melköya near the Norwegian city of Hammerfest, Bilfinger provides extensive maintenance services for insulation, scaffolding and corrosion protection.

As one of Statoil’s most important service partners, the company has been active for many years in Europe’s largest gas liquefaction plant.

There, natural gas pumped from the Snöhvit gas field more than 160 kilometers offshore in the Barents Sea is processed for further transport.
