DEA Awards Dvalin Job to Technip

Russian-owned Hamburg-based upstream independent DEA has awarded the EPCI (Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation) contract for the smaller structures and pipelines as well as the subsea installation work of the Dvalin development to Technip.

DEA said October 11 that the contract includes the fabrication of smaller structures, the 12/16-inch pipe-in-pipe production flowline, the 12-inch gas export pipeline and the installation of pipelines as well as all subsea structures and umbilical for the Dvalin field.

Dvalin's development cost is estimated at €1.1bn, with first gas scheduled in 2020. Over half that cost is already allocated to contracts awarded to Aker Solutions, Aibel and now Technip. DEA submitted the Dvalin (formerly called Zidane) development plan to the Norwegian authorities a week ago.
