DNV GL to Provide Verification for Maersk Oil’s Tyra Field

DNV GL has won a contract to provide independent verification services for the Maersk Oil redevelopment of the Tyra field, offshore Denmark.

The contract will be coordinated by DNV GL in Denmark, with teams of experts from multiple DNV GL offices supporting the construction in fabrication yards across the world over the next five years, DNV GL informed.

DNV GL’s contract scope includes independent verification and support services and ultimately the certification of all greenfield activities.

This work will take place during the engineering, procurement, construction, installation, hook-up and commissioning phases for two new jackets and eight topsides. These consist of one central processing facility, one accommodation platform, four wellhead modules and two riser modules.

DNV GL’ s independent third-party verification will help Maersk Oil to ensure transparent package status and the real-time reporting of equipment-salient points, provide technical assurance and enable Maersk Oil to manage project risks, DNV GL said.

Liv Hovem, senior vice president, DNV GL – Oil & Gas, said: “We’re very proud to have won the verification contract for the Tyra redevelopment and look forward to furthering our collaborative relationship with Maersk Oil.”

Major parts of the work included in the contract will only be executed given that Maersk Oil takes final investment decision on the Tyra redevelopment project.
