Saipem scope was to remove the 2/4-S Jacket and Tripod structures and deliver to the Deconstruction facility at Kvaerner Stord, Norway

All Engineering and Structure Preparations, Removal and Transportation (EPR)by Saipem

Contract awarded in mid 2011

Topsides had been previously removed by others, so minimal access available and the structures have been unattended for a long time.

The preparation and removal work was performed in Q2/Q3 2014

10 different vessels and 2# cargo barges used in the execution of the Project.

Summary of project – Original Removal Method

Original Offshore plan was to:

Prepare the Structures by OCV

Use OCV in SIMOPS with the S7000 campaign

Remove the Tripod (lift on the S7000 deck)

Lift the Jacket

Wet tow the Jacket to the deconstruction site

Place the Jacket on the seabed

Place tripod on quay

Cut jacket and place one section onto the quay, the other section in front of the quay

12

saipem limited

Summary of project changes/development

Unexpected challenge discovered – weld at top part of jacket (at water line) not as expected

Revise lift method – lift from piles

High risk with work on tripod very close to waterline

Development of access method by utilising bespoke access systems and Lift tools rather than welding lifting points.

Schedule challenge with other Statoil installation projects

Adjust S7000 schedule to allow a split campaign

OCV Availability challenge

Combine work on one vessel and avoid SIMOPS

Summary of project changes - Solutions

Success By

Develop a robust removal solution for the Jacket – ALARP application

Evaluating how methods can improved and developed access and reduce risk to personnel

Vessel planning and flexibility

Work with Client to realise each others drivers to agree the best way forward

HSE Approach – Some background

Saipem History

Serious Accident

A complete review of the process was carried out and follow-up plan and implemented further areas of focus were identified for improvement.

– ‘Bullseye’– identified areas where risk ‘step’ changed.

– Identified the “5 ring strategy” for success.

– Ensure that there are no ‘holes’ in our barriers.

– Use of Jobcard rather than long cumbersome manuals.

– Better communication (animations/snap t.v. screens/dirty briefing room onboard)

Saipem now have a robust risk management / project execution strategy

5 Ring Strategy

• There are 5 key areas that hold together and overlap

• If there is failure in any of these areas, there is the increased risk of an event

• Maintain the function and input of these areas and the likelihood of an accident is reduced

Good project understanding and robust removal method development is key

Use Jobcards, physical models and animations for decommissioning

Perform as much subsea work from the same vessel to avoid simops

Invest in understanding the soils behaviour before construction activities and ensure that suitable contingency is available

Use pre-fabricated access wherever possible and get scaffold plans introduced earlier in project

Early engagement of contractors is recommended. All contractors to correctly plan their deliverables (avoid last minute work)

Ensure a good Client / Contractor relationship and accept correct managed change is likely

Never view decommissioning as “reverse installation” both operationally and contractually

Lessons Learnt

37

saipem limited

Conclusions

Project was a great success from both HSE performance and schedule

Both Contractor and Client were focused on the issues and understood the differences due to a decommissioning project

Proactive HSE approach from client (not just a ‘policing’ approach)

Change is probable in a decommissioning project however it must be correctly managed.
