DNV GL bags Johan Sverdrup verification deal

DNV GL has won a verification contract on the Norwegian giant field Johan Sverdrup from Statoil. 

The value of the contracts is approximately NOK 60 million ($7.02M).

Statoil has awarded contracts to DNV GL for verification of all 4 topsides, the 3 bridges, 3 of 4 jackets, topside installation by use of the Allseas single lift vessel ‘Pioneering Spirit’ and extended site assessment for the jack-up.

According to DNV GL, third-party verification gives the operator and the authorities confidence that the project development has the required safety and quality level.

“The contract demonstrates that our investment in technology, service development and efficient operations is making us competitive also in this cost challenged market. We sincerely look forward to supporting Statoil and the Johan Sverdrup partners on this important project,” says Regional Manager for DNV GL- Oil & Gas Norway, Kjell Eriksson.
