Australia-based Subsea Engineering Associates (SEA) has received owner’s engineering contract for the Baltic Pipe Project between Denmark and Poland.

The Baltic Pipe is a strategic infrastructure project that will allow transport of gas from fields in Norway to the Danish and Polish markets, as well as to neighbouring countries.

The project promoters include GAZ-SYSTEM from Poland and ENERGINET from Denmark.

The scope of the offshore project which is managed by GAZ-SYSTEM includes 250-300 km of 36-inch bi-directional subsea gas pipeline between shore crossings in Denmark and Poland.

SEA’s scope includes technical oversight, implementation of lessons learnt from other similar projects, planning support and risk management to ensure project delivery in 2022.

Adam Czajko, director at SEA, said: “We are very pleased to be part of this high-profile project and fully understand its importance to both Poland and Denmark. This is SEA’s third offshore pipeline project in the Baltic Sea, following the Baltic Gas Project in Poland and more recently, the Balticconnector offshore pipeline project between Finland and Estonia. Our focus for Baltic Pipe is to support successful project delivery ready for 2022 operations.”
