ABANDONMENT/DECOMMISSIONING

As many fields reach maturity, abandonment and decommissioning philosophy and costs increasingly become the focus of attention. Despite detailed legislation and guidelines, there are still many remaining choices regarding the method of decommissioning consistent with the main evaluation criteria which NSE believe to be; Technical Feasibility, Environmental Impact, Safety and Cost.

Whether it's pro-active input in the design-phase to develop decommissioning philosophies or reactive engineering to find solutions to "mature" installations, NSE can provide a valued input.

NSE will provide clarity on the regulatory requirements and identify the relevant abandonment/ decommissioning options in each case. Each option can subsequently be screened in accordance with the main evaluation criteria with weightings agreed up-front, to suit the project drivers.
