Heidelberg Truss Spar on Its Way to Green Canyon

Anadarko informed that Heidelberg truss spar has started its journey from Ingleside, Texas, to Green Canyon block 860 in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

In February this year, Technip’s construction yard in Pori, Finland built and delivered a 23,000-ton truss spar hull for Heidelberg field development.

The Heidelberg development is located approximately 140 miles offshore Louisiana, and consists of Green Canyon blocks 859, 860, 903, 904 and 948, scheduled for first oil in 2016.

The Heidelberg Spar, with a capacity to produce more than 80,000 barrels of oil and 2.3 million cubic meters of natural gas per day, will be moored in 1620 meters of water.

Technip’s operating center in Houston, Texas provided the overall project management and engineering.

According to the company, after Lucius, Anadarko’s most technically advanced truss spar to date, Heidelberg is the 8th Spar delivered by Technip to Anadarko.

The detailed hull design and fabrication started in November 2012.

UTC 2017

The subsea industry has, as all other parts of the oil & gas industry, been seriously rattled by the most severe downturn in the hydrocarbon energy era. However, the realization of what hit us and actions to be taken to sustain a healthy and profitable future is still on-going – unfortunately with thousands of colleagues paying the price by losing their job as one of the most severe consequences. At this time, there are signs that we have reached bottom in terms of most industry indicators, but few experts expect a sharp recovery. Many seem to believe that a slow recovery is what the industry needs in order to avoid an unsustainable capacity build-up, as seen in the period after the financial crisis. Considering the uncertainty of what the future will bring, this year’s UTC Program Committee have decided to challenge all of us to present ideas, experiences, technological innovations, business models and execution models for how to shape our subsea future and explain how and why subsea is the future.
UTC welcomes abstracts based on the topics listed below. If selected, please consider writing a paper in addition to the UTC presentation. From 2017, UTC papers will be published in an international database.
