Director’s foreword Trade Mission to Norway
This has been achieved using two discreet sources of industry advice. Firstly, we carefully reviewed and analysed the individual discussions conducted by a group of our directors with senior officials of DNS member companies during the latter part of 2010. This provided valuable feedback on what initially attracted companies to become members and, importantly, to identify which areas and initiatives they recommend for future attention.

Secondly, having enlarged the DNS Board to ensure appropriate representation from the industry, we were able to identify the issues and opportunities facing most sectors of the industry. Through a facilitated workshop in January 2011, we have developed a forward strategy for the organisation based on members’feedback and also on the experience and knowledge of the decommissioning experts that make up our Board. Compelling support was recorded for Decom North Sea to continue (and if possible increase) its current activities, namely networking events which provide value to our members; regional and topical focus groups; industry communication and knowledge sharing; mapping the supply chain strengths and capabilities; further development of appropriate contracting models: and facilitating introductions across the industry. In addition, a range of more strategic initiatives and opportunities were identified and prioritised including the following:■ provision of detailed market intelligence drawn from existing industry sources and filtered to be easily accessible by our members ■ facilitate groups of members to share information, form alliances, address technologies etc.

The Way Forward - continued from front page
■ look overseas to identify market opportunities and to promote member capabilities These initiatives are listed generally in accordance with the priorities established at the January workshop, and DNS will now scope out and assess the level and type of resource that will be required to progress and deliver them. The sources of support required also require to be identified and developed. By progressively combining these two strands of strategy, the Board believes that Decom North Sea can become financially sustainable, and can become recognised as a truly credible focus for North Sea decommissioning supply chain activity.
Director’s foreword Nearly one year on from our formation, we have 110 members drawn from the supply chain including companies of all sizes and types, operators, partner organisations and market analysts. While we are well on the road to the critical mass we need to be recognised as truly representative of the decommissioning sector, our membership drive will continue unabated throughout the coming year. What is emerging clearly is our role as a facilitator in the decommissioning sector. DNS has already demonstrated its ability to pull together key players from the industry and is accepted as having the capability and impetus to take forward actions needed to ensure that we achieve our aim of maximising the benefits to the economy offered by decommissioning expenditures. A priority for us has been working with our board to look at longer term objectives and you will see our future priorities set out in this issue of our newsletter. That strategy has been driven very much by feedback from our members and the guidance from our industry directors to lead us on to the bigger initiatives that require to be addressed. Also feeding into that strategy is the output from the conference we held in October with Oil & Gas UK. We cannot stress enough how seriously we are listening to industry, and at the conference we captured actions that have now been circulated to the 200 attendees. Some of those actions will be taken on by Oil & Gas UK, some by DNS, some in partnership. Central to our role in ensuring added value to our membership is the busy programme of members’ events taking place over the coming year. These include sessions with operators and major contractors on their decommissioning programmes, giving our members invaluable access to decision makers in addition to the opportunity to network and learn. I do hope 2011 is off to a successful start for all our members and hope to see you all at our events over the course of the year. Brian Nixon Chief Executive Decom North Sea
Trade Mission to Norway Decom North Sea (DNS) recognises that there are huge opportunities for its members in decommissioning projects not only in the UKCS but right across the North Sea, in the Norwegian Continental Shelf, the Dutch Continental Shelf and the Danish Continental Shelf. Decom North Sea is working with its European partners to try to quantify what the total expected cost and programme of decommissioning will be across the North Sea and therefore what is the potential opportunity for DNS members. DNS is already promoting its member capabilities to the key players in each of these areas. One of the first initiatives DNS is undertaking is to take a small group of companies to Norway in February. The aim of the mission is find out more about upcoming decommissioning projects in the Norwegian Continental Shelf as well as to promote Decom North Sea members capabilities to the operators and major contractors operating in Norway. The visit to Norway coincides with a major decommissioning conference in Bergen which is organised by the Norwegian Petroleum Society (NPF). The mission will include a visit to Scanmet and a tour of their decommissioning site at Stord and a visit to AF Decom’s decommissioning facilities at Vats. The mission will conclude in Stavanger with a networking event with presentations from some of the key operators in the Norwegian Continental Shelf followed by 1-2-1 sessions. The companies participating on this mission include: Cape Industrial Services, Wood Group Engineering, Interact Activity Management, Sureclean.

Douglas-Westwood becomes 100th member of Decom North Sea On 1st December 2010 we reached the milestone of signing our 100th member – well ahead of membership targets. Commercial and strategy analysts Douglas-Westwood were the latest organisation from across all sectors of the Oil & Gas industry to join the supply chain body. Other recent members included operators, major contractors, service specialists and technology developers. Among individual companies to have joined recently are Squibb Group Ltd, Offshore Installation Services Ltd (OIS), Simmons & Company International, Maersk Oil UK Ltd, Perenco UK Ltd and BMT Cordah Ltd. We had revised our target number by the end of March 2011 from 70 members to 100 and we are now well on track to reach 200 members by the end of 2011 – the level chief executive Brian Nixon believes will make Decom North Sea genuinely representative of the supply chain. “It is highly encouraging so many companies are realising Decom North Sea can help them benefit from the £25-30billion worth of decommissioning work forecast for the North Sea over the coming decades,’’ said Mr Nixon. “We are being approached by potential new members virtually every day and getting applications to join from companies we have not been to see yet. Our focus now is very much on offering a sustained programme of relevant events to ensure we retain existing members as well as attracting new ones.’’ The decommissioning of offshore oil and gas platforms is becoming increasingly important as many UKCS fields are approaching end-of-life. More than 260 will have to be wholly or partially removed from UK waters over the next 30 years. Andrew Reid, Managing Director and CEO at Douglas-Westwood in Aberdeen, said:“Our UKCS Offshore Decommissioning Report 2010-2040 provides an overview of future prospects, covering all aspects from the plugging and abandonment of subsea wells to onshore deconstruction and recycling. It provides essential information for decision-makers in oil companies and contracting & supply industries, government departments and financial institutions and we are delighted to offer Decom North Sea members a discount on the report.’’ If you are interested in finding out more about the Douglas-Westwood ‘UKCS Offshore Decommissioning Report 2010-2040’ contact Eve Noon at Douglas-Westwood on 01224 264970 or email eve.noon@dw-1.com

Members News Proserv Offshore completes major decommissioning contract Proserv Offshore recently completed a major subsea cutting contract for the decommissioning of the Iwaki platform off the north-east coast of Japan. Situated in 154m (505ft) of water, the eight-legged, 20,735-metric ton (22,856-ton) platform was the largest in the region scheduled for decommissioning. Proserv Offshore supplied all the cutting equipment and services required, which included Jetcut Water Abrasive Cutting Systems, Diamond Wire Cutting Systems and Friction Disc Cutters. Whilst some of the tooling already existed, Proserv Offshore had to develop the 24” to 42” Saddle Pipe Cutter, Launch Runner Cutting Tool and 62” to 80” Diamond Wire Cuting Tool. Each of these tools had to meet demanding design parameters set by the client which included fully integrated fly-to-site capabilities with SapuraAcergy’s Work Class ROV’s. All the new tooling was designed and developed within 14 weeks using Proserv Offshore’s in-house engineering and manufacturing capability. Part of the extensive trial process completed during the testing of the cutting tools was to perform a diamond wire cut using Proserv Offshore’s 62” to 80” tool on a full scale mock of the platform leg c/w launch runner under the compressive loads of 560 metric tonnes. This simulated the loading that the leg would be under during the actual offshore cuts. Once the trials were complete, the equipment was prepared at each regional base and mobilised to the S3000 heavy lifting vessel so the cutting operations could commence. Throughout this process Proserv Offshore supervised the entire cutting operation which was deployed using ROV’s. A total of 34 structural cuts were performed which were completed successfully for the client on time and within budget.
Due to Safety & Environmental procedures, RAM TUBULARS Scotland Ltd (Recycling & Management Services Division) was awarded the contract for the safe disposal of the Piper Tartan (P/T) Riser Truss from the MCP01 structure in the North Sea in an environmentally friendly manner. RAM TUBULARS met Totals and SUBSEA7 obligations to the Department of Energy and Climate Change for this activity. Having in place our ISO 9001 : 2008 and 14001: 2004 enables us to meet the requirements of the major oil companies for Safety & Environmental issues. We recognise the importance of environmental protection and are committed to operating our business responsibly and in compliance with all legal requirements relating to scrap metal recycling. Whichever Port is chosen RAM can meet the requirements for Safe working & disposal by environmentally friendly means. For this project it was decided on Peterhead North Quay. SUBSEA7 used the vessel crane to lift the offshore sections of the truss onto the quayside enabling an assessment of the offshore sections of the truss material giving us the precise methods to employ in reducing the dimensions of the truss enabling safe transportation by our contracted hauliers. This is one of many decommissioning projects that RAM has successfully completed by using our documented procedures for Safety & Environmental issues.

Falck Nutec invest in unique lifting system Falck Nutec, the world’s largest provider of safety training for the offshore industry, has invested in a new 2010 man-riding TGHTM crane at its Aberdeen offshore training facility. The crane, which cost approximately £250k to install, is the first of its type to be operational in the UK for survival safety training. The TGHTM crane, which is fully compliant with all industry legislation, features a pneumatic safety system allowing the simulation helicopter to be lifted out of the water using air in the event of an emergency or loss of power. Installation of the gantry system was carried out during evenings and weekends to avoid downtime and involved erecting a number of steel beams above the training pool. Chris Lawson, Falck Nutec centre manager said “We are delighted to have invested in this unique lifting system. Its installation compliments our training and commitment to the future. “This was a seamless operation with no downtime and due to the professionalism of our contractors we were able to carry on our day to day operations with no interruptions.” The investment is part of Falck Nutec’s ongoing commitment to its training centres globally and is the second TGHTM crane to be installed by the Group. Paul Douglas of Survival Systems Limited (SSL) said “Falck Nutec and SSL worked together to successfully install Falck’s second TGH man-rated crane. The staff from both companies accomplished this installation with zero interruptions to training courses” “DNV were there to witness the load test which passed with Flying colours. Falck Nutec and SSL are pleased to have the updated man-riding lifting system in place, thereby creating a safer place to train for both students and instructors.”

Peterhead’s Plans Progressing A north-east company established to service the lucrative North Sea oil & gas decommissioning market has announced that its plans for a purpose built site are progressing, but the timing for completion has been impacted by continued uncertainty over when major decommissioning projects will start. Peterhead Decommissioning has plans in place for a 5,500m² concreted and bunded site at the newly-opened Smith Embankment at Peterhead Harbour. Once completed, the facility will be capable of receiving medium-sized packages weighing up to 2,500 tonnes which can be skidded and craned – maximum single lift of 500 tonnes – ashore. The company has existing facilities at the harbour’s South Base which are capable of accommodating small piece packages weighing up to 400 tonnes. Grant McGregor, general manager, said:“We are open for business and our 2,500m² site at the South Base is suitable for handling and dismantling small piece equipment. Offshore decommissioning covers much more than just end-of-life platform decommissioning; it includes field upgrade, regeneration and rejuvenation projects, and our existing facility can cater for items from such schemes. Additionally, the site is also suitable for processing redundant subsea production facilities. “All our plans for the Smith Embankment site are in place and ready to go, but because of uncertainty over when major offshore decommissioning projects will commence, work has not yet started. We anticipate a construction time of approximately four months to have the site completed and work is scheduled to start within 12-18 months, or earlier if the market dictates. “We have been very encouraged by the level of interest which has been shown in our facilities, capabilities and location. Peterhead’s mainland location, and close proximity to the central and northern North Sea sectors and to the onshore services required for decommissioning, provides many benefits to customers.” In the longer term, Peterhead Decommissioning plans further investment to allow large piece packages weighing up to 20,000 tonnes to be decommissioned in north-east Scotland. Such plans will be developed as and when the decommissioning market demands them. Established in 2008 to serve the North Sea oil & gas decommissioning market, Peterhead Decommissioning is a consortium of seven local companies which have complementary multi-industry skills and experience. Based at Peterhead Harbour, the company is involved in the onshore deconstruction of oil & gas assets. The total value of decommissioning the entire North Sea UK Continental Shelf oil & gas infrastructure is estimated to be around £25bn, with the onshore demolition element valued at £3bn.

TETRA Introduces New Cutting Technology TETRA Technologies, Inc., in conjunction with Completion Technologies, has developed an industry changing mechanical cutting tool. This versatile cutting technology will provide cutting solutions in various downhole applications that will reduce cut times, as well as provide a verifiable cut. With this type of advanced technology, projects will remain on schedule and cut times will be reduced by two-thirds or more, while maintaining a small footprint for easy deployment and utilization. Work on the design and development of the Multiple Tubular Severance Robot (MTSR1) began in February 2010 with the first unit currently being tested. Test results demonstrate that the MTSR1 technology is outperforming expectations beyond conventional methods. This cutting technology utilizes a low pressure hydraulic power system with a compact operational package that does not require accumulators, high pressure hoses, or tank loading/reloading of abrasive materials. In addition, the design of the tool alleviates the need to move or re-align the tool after the initial cut or any additional cuts in multiple-layered casing/conductors. The MTSR1 provides a precise method for machining through multiple layers of steel casing and cement specific to conductors in depleted offshore oil and gas wells. This method utilizes a hydraulically powered, computer-controlled, three-axis, downhole milling robot. Once the robotic tool is lowered into the wellbore to the desired depth, it is centered and locked into place inside the inner most casing string. It then begins machining through all of the multiple layers of casing and cement during the cutting operation. A self-contained, rotary-powered milling spindle is fed outward of the robot, while indexing a circumference of 360 degrees and completely severing the conductor. The portable MTSR1 mills from inside 9-5/8” casing outward to a 42” diameter and can be utilized in a rigless environment. It can also be easily adapted to other size ranges. The operator’s control panel displays the severing of multiple casing strings and cement in real time and can be recorded for later reference. Advantages: ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■
Easy Setup: Modular system consisting of one operator’s cabin and one control station. Rigless: No rig or means of a rotary drive are required on the surface. Ease of Use: Computer controlled requiring very basic, simple operator interface Versatile: Water depth does not affect the performance. Safe: No explosives or high pressures are necessary. Environmentally Friendly: No fish kill, no explosives, and no introduction of any harmful materials into the environment occur when utilizing the MTSR1. ■ Efficient: Verified severance occurs in one trip inside of the hole. Currently, there is no other similar cutting technology in existence. The tool and technology is fully patent protected.

A year of applying innovation and delivering value The volume, diversity and complexity of North Sea decommissioning projects have increased over the past 12 months. But, writes Stuart Wordsworth, oilfield service providers have continued to find ways to devise safe, reliable and effective abandonment strategies. For instance, multi-operator campaigns, previously regarded as being a Gulf-of-Mexico-centric approach, are increasingly common in North Sea decommissioning, and this trend is likely to continue. Typically, these jobs are contractually complex as well as challenging, both technically and operationally. On a recent subsea suspended well campaign that involved four operators and six wells in categories 1, 2.1 and 2.2, for example, Offshore Installation Services, an Acteon company, took an innovative, cost-effective execution approach. Reducing duplications and improving efficiency including in mobilisation and demobilisation costs delivered significant cost savings for the operators involved. Acteon, which is made up of several specialist decommissioning services, believes that it is imperative that service providers
continuously develop their capabilities in order to respond to the industry’s emerging needs, and its companies have applied innovation, expertise and experience to support the growth and development in the fast changing sector this year. Proof of this came with the recent abandonment of a unique dry-tree subsea observation well, which was project managed by InterAct, and the abrasive conductor severing support that Claxton provided for decommissioning the Indefatigable field in the Southern North Sea. Led, where appropriate, by project management and engineering company InterAct, Acteon companies provide a wide range of decommissioning services and equipment, from project management and engineering through to cutting and engineered products. The group has ongoing decommissioning projects in the North Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, West Africa and Asia. InterAct is also an active member of Oil & Gas UK’s Workgroup 5b.
