James Fisher Cuts Decom Time in Middle East

James Fisher Offshore (JFO) supports Saudi EPC business, NPCC to deliver time and cost savings in offshore decommissioning operations in the Middle East.

According to JFO, its ultra-high-pressure (UHP) abrasive water jet internal cutting system has delivered NPCC a 60% reduction in overall cutting time on its ongoing project.

This system minimises equipment requirements and the need to de-water, while the cut verification system ensures operator and customer certainty, minimising the risk of stitching and, ultimately, reducing risk of over-run on high cost projects, JFO explains.

Jack Davidson, managing director at JFO, said: “It is fantastic to be working in support of companies like NPCC that recognise our expertise in deploying the correct technology and equipment to optimise their results.

“Our experience and innovations are delivering tangible time and cost savings for our customers, for example reducing vessel time, back deck and personnel requirements and enhancing project assurance.

“It is exciting to see the top tier of the supply chain regionally such as NPCC embrace our new technologies and innovative ways of working, benefitting from the value we are delivering for them and to the overall decommissioning landscape.”
