Norsafe to deliver lifeboat systems to Statoil’s platform

TIN news:  Norsafe announced that has received orders from Kværner relating to the delivery of three lifeboat systems of its largest freefall lifeboat, the GES 52, with compatible davits, to Statoil’s Njord A platform.

As the company stated, the lifeboat systems are built according to SOLAS and DNV-OS-E406. The contract will be delivered in 2018 and 2019.

The upgrade of the platform is part of the project that Statoil has called “Njord Future” with the purpose of extending the life of the Njord field. The Njord field where the Njord A platform is normally stationed, lies approximately 130 kilometres North West of Kristiansund and 30 kilometres west of the Draugen field in the Norwegian Sea.

“We are proud to be chosen by Kværner to be a part of this important upgrade project. The cooperation with Aker Solutions and Kværner has been orderly, informative and challenging”, said CEO of Norsafe Group, Dag Songedal.
