Following successful riser-less interventions since second half 2020, Equinor and AKOFS have mobilized for a riser-based campaign using coiled tubing through an option in the contract. The AKOFS Seafarer has proven to be an extremely efficient vessel for riser-less interventions year round on NCS thanks to its unique set-up, size and lay-out as well as the OneTeam model implemented by AKOFS and its operating partners Archer, WellTec and IKM Subsea. Utilizing its flexibility, a high pressure work-over riser system has now been mobilized and added to the vessel together with a coiled tubing spread and fluid return treatment system.
The AKOFS Seafarer is now en-route to Equinor-operated fields Norne, Åsgard and Statfjord where well objectives will include scale, sand and debris removals, perforations as well as installation of plugs and screens.
