Engie to Modify Gjøa Platform for Skarfjell Subsea Tie-Back

Engie E&P Norge has awarded Rosenberg WorleyParsons the front end engineering and design (FEED) study for modifications at the Gjøa platform in the North Sea.

The modifications are needed for the subsea tie-back connection of the the Skarfjell field to the Gjøa platform.

The partners in the Skarfjell license PL418, operated by Wintershall Norge, have selected subsea tie-back solution to Gjøa for the Skarfjell field, located in the Norwegian North Sea.

“The tie back of Skarfjell production to Gjøa is in line with Engie E&P’s strategy to make Gjøa a hub for future fields in the area and to extend the lifetime of the Gjøa platform,” the company said.
