Consafe captures new work
 Offshore field modification projects in the North Sea and in the Bass Strait off Australia have led to Aberdeen-based Consafe Engineering landing new work worth nearly £10 million providing accommodation facilities.
Consafe has captured one deal with Wood Group Engineering North Sea for modifications to Total's North Sea Elgin Franklin field installations, by provision of a new 29-module four storey living quarters unit.
Extra floor space on the Elgin Franklin platform will provide offices, recreation rooms, a sick bay, heli-lounge, galley and mess, plus a new muster area, and Consafe is responsible for complete design and build of the new facility.
Another deal with PSN in Melbourne – its first award offshore Australia – involve two new contracts. One is for provision of a five-module unit comprising H60 fire and blast rated cabins providing accommodation on another production facility for the Bass Strait off. And a second contract is for the provision of 10-module temporary living quarters. Both are being provided as part of a major modification programme in the field.
Consafe will be sending staff out to Australia as part of the PSN contracts to provide test construction of the units before they are shipped offshore.Advertisement
