Partnership develops leading wellhead control technology
Gyda field re-development focuses on ease of maintenance and space saving

The Norwegian Gyda field, located between Ula and Ekofisk in the southern part of the North Sea, proven in 1980 started production in June 1990. Developed with a combined drilling, accommodation and processing facility with a steel jacket, the facility supplies approximately 14,000 barrel of oil per day. The Gyda field is considered amongst many, as a mature field in terms of current reserve depletion. Gyda is ideally suited to owners Talisman Energy’s North Sea strategy, which focuses on mature and small field development, with ample potential for significant new investment.

UK Manufacture at it’s best
Platform Re0development with BP Norway

Since the discovery of the Valhall oil field in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea in 1975 with production beginning in 1982, it has supplied approximately 65,000 barrels of oil per day. Originally developed with three facilities, the complex today consists of five bridge-linked platforms for quarters, drilling, wellheads, production and water injection respectively. In addition, three wellhead platforms, Hod, Valhall Flank South and North, have been installed about 6 km each, from the Valhall complex. Due to seabed subsidence (about 25 cm per year), resulting in the water depth at site increasing by about 5 meters, as well as the call to operate more efficiently re-development of the field centre is well underway.
