加拿大Deep Panuke海上平台从油田移除

据离岸工程网站8月7日消息 Deep Panuke生产平台已从加拿大新斯科舍省同名海上气田拆除，并将回收利用。

自升式采油平台于2011年由SBM Offshore交付至油田，作为Encana（现以加拿大名义）运营的Deep Panuke天然气开发项目的一部分。

该气田的天然气位于新斯科舍省哈利法克斯市东南约250公里、塞布尔岛以西约47公里处，水深44米，在近海进行加工，并通过海底管道输送至新斯科舍省戈德博罗附近的海岸，以便采用Maritimes & Northeast管道进一步运输至市场。

Deep Panuke的生产于2018年5月7日永久停止，目前正在进行退役活动。

周四，将平台从油田移除的消息被SBM Offshore分享，该平台的所有者是将其租给Encana的公司。

SBM Offshore 表示：“Deep Panuke平台（Deep Panuke MOPU）于2020年7月从海上油田安全拆除。在项目的下一阶段，将准备将平台运送到回收站。回收站的选择计划在今年下半年进行。

SBM Offshore进一步表示，将合同授予回收站的先决条件是进行审计，以确回收站在公司政策范围内运营的能力，并符合相关的外部准则。

荷兰海上生产设施供应商表示，该装置的复员不影响合同约定的金额和公司根据初始租船合同收到的财务考虑的时间。

SBM Offshore表示：“这包括客户可以选择在初始租期结束前继续付款，或选择提前一次性付款。”

根据现有资料，双方商定的租期为2021年11月。

该公司表示，将在2020年下半年确认剩余收入（1.22亿美元），其中还包括2021年收到的财政对价部分，以防提前一次性付款（7900万美元）。

Canada: Deep Panuke Offshore Platform Removed from Field

The Deep Panuke production platform has been "de-installed" from the namesake offshore gas field in Nova Scotia, Canada, and will be recycled.

The jack-up production platform was delivered to the field back in 2011 by SBM Offshore as part of Deep Panuke gas development operated by Encana (now known under the name of Canada.)

Natural gas from the field, located offshore about 250 km southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia, around 47 km west of Sable Island in 44 meters of water, was processed offshore and transported via a subsea pipeline to shore near Goldboro, Nova Scotia for further transport to markets using the Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline.

Production from Deep Panuke permanently stopped on May 7, 2018, and the decommissioning activities are now underway.

News of the platform being removed from the field was shared Thursday by SBM Offshore, the owner of the platform which leased it to Encana.

"Deep Panuke MOPU The Deep Panuke platform was safely de-installed from the offshore field in July 2020. During the next phase of the project, the platform will be prepared for transport to a recycling yard. The yard selection is planned for second half of this year," SBM Offshore said.

SBM Offshore further said that a prerequisite for awarding the contract to the yard will be an audit to confirm the yard’s ability to operate within the company's policy and meet the relevant external guidelines.

The Dutch offshore production facilities provider said that the demobilization of the unit does not affect the contractually agreed amount and timing of the financial considerations to be received by the company as per the initial charter contract.

"This includes the option for the client to continue payments until the end of the initial charter period or to elect for an early lump-sum payment," SBM Offshore said.

According to available info, the charter period agreed was until November 2021.

The company said it would recognize the remaining revenue in the second half-year of 2020 (US$122 million), which also includes the portion of the financial consideration to be received in 2021 in case no early lump sum payment is made (US$79 million).
