DENMARK — Wood has been chosen by EPCI contractor Rosetti Marino to conduct a front-end engineering design (FEED) study for the INEOS Hejre development project in the Danish North Sea.
This collaboration brings together Wood’s extensive offshore engineering experience with Rosetti Marino’s expertise in topside EPCI (Engineering, Procurement, Construction, and Installation).
The project scope includes delivering the engineering design for the facility and supporting Rosetti Marino in developing the execute phase tender.
This comprehensive approach aims to provide a clear roadmap to project completion, ensuring a smooth transition from design to execution.
Simon Harris, Senior Vice President of Oil & Gas and New Energies Europe at Wood emphasised the importance of coupling innovative solutions with predictable delivery.
He stated: “Often the greatest success factor for new offshore projects comes down to the quality of execution, which is why we emphasise the importance of coupling innovative solutions with predictable delivery at Wood.”
Wood brings a wealth of experience to the project, having engineered over one million tonnes of topside facilities globally, including support for the majority of facilities in the North Sea.
This expertise will be crucial in delivering a fabrication and construction-ready design during the initial stages of the project, minimising potential issues in later phases.
The Hejre Development Project is set to play a significant role in Europe’s energy supply, with the planned first oil production in 2027.
The project encompasses a greenfield topside installation and brownfield modifications, including tie-ins to existing wellhead and processing platforms.
This collaboration between Wood and Rosetti Marino aims to provide INEOS with a cost-effective and executable design, leveraging their combined strengths to ensure the successful delivery of this critical energy infrastructure project.
