Successful delivery and installation of new Tyra jackets
Today, the two jackets were confirmed safely installed on Tyra according to plan after completing fabrication in the yard, Dragados Offshore S.A, in Spain . The jackets form the foundation for the new Tyra process and accommodation platforms and are the first new jacket structures delivered and installed for the Tyra redevelopment project. The past year has mainly involved the safeguarding of the wells and wellhead jackets, and the decommissioning and removal of the old Tyra modules this summer.
The delivery and installation of the two new jackets is an important step towards having a state-of-the-art production and export facility ensuring efficient production and enhanced safety for decades to come. Looking ahead, the remainder of the project will focus on yard fabrication and offshore installations to rebuild the new Tyra. The wellhead and riser modules are currently being built in Singapore , the accommodation module in Italy and the process module in Indonesia .
The redeveloped Tyra hub will be a sophisticated production and export center that will secure gas supply for many years ahead. Additionally, the redevelopment will reduce emissions for the future of natural gas production on the Danish Continental Shelf. With the use of new technology and modernized working processes Tyra's operating efficiency is expected to increase, and at the same time reduce CO2 intensity by 30%. This is a key facet of Noreco and DUC's emissions-reducing activities, which also includes optimization of fuel usage, reduction of flaring, simplification of existing infrastructure and optimization of supply chain.
