ENERGY logistics provider, Peterson, has achieved two major milestones with the successful arrival of the 14,200 tonne Ninian Northern topside at the company’s base in Shetland and a record 50 structures received for decommissioning in Great Yarmouth Port.
Operating as the landlord of the Dales Voe site in Shetland, Peterson engineered the above-ground support and collaborated with Lerwick Port Authority to develop the foundations and bunded area to receive the Ninian Northern topside, making it the largest and first single-lift structure to be decommissioned at the site.
The 47-year-old structure will be decommissioned by the Veola/Peterson joint venture with a 97% recycling target.
In Great Yarmouth, Peterson received a record number of 50 structures for decommissioning – the most in the UK – and achieved 50 self-propelled modular transporter (SPMT) transports over a three-year period.
Ron van der Laan, Peterson director, said: “We’re delighted to achieve these significant milestones demonstrating our team’s tremendous client focus and engineering capability.”
A total of £5.35 million has been invested in Peterson sites as the company looks to grow its infrastructure capability to support future client projects.
