Maersk Oil has signed a contract with Bladt Industries to build the jacket (legs) and topside (platform).

In June, the 1,100 tonnes topside, the 2,000 tonnes four-legged jacket, 12 piles weighing a total of 1,600 tonnes as well as the connecting bridge were loaded onto the barge.

The EPC-project will serve as an extension of the already existing Tyra Southeast A platform.

After installing the platform, Maersk Oil plans to drill 12 wells during 2015-2017. Each horizontal well will be about six kilometres long.
