INTECSEA’s UK office has been awarded the subsea front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract for Maersk Oil UK's Culzean development in the North Sea.

The Culzean development is one of the largest gas discoveries made in recent years in the UK North Sea. It is located in water depths of about 88m and the reservoir around 4,300m below sea level.

The contract, which includes optional design scopes in support of the Culzean project, was awarded to INTECSEA following a competitive tender process. It is expected to run for 10 months.

Work on the project began at the beginning of July and will be carried out in the INTECSEA UK office.

INTECSEA President Neil Mackintosh said, “This award is an important milestone for us and reaffirms the growing relationship that we have with Maersk in the Europe and Africa Region and across the globe. We look forward to working closely with Maersk and successfully executing this project.”
