NEWS RELEASE
Following a number of key offshore projects, Cleveland
Bridge UK announces that its Darlington fabrication facility has won two
new contracts, worth a collective £1,200,000, to produce plate girders
for inclusion on the Encana (UK) Ltd Buzzard Field
Development. Located in the Outer Moray Firth, The Buzzard
Development Project is one of the most significant discoveries in the North
Sea.
The first contract is to fabricate 195 plate girders for
Burntisland Fabricators based near Fife in Scotland for inclusion on the
Well Head Deck Module. The
second is to fabricate 327 plate girders for Heerema Hartlepool Ltd based
in Hartlepool in the north east of England for inclusion on the Utilities
Module.
Brian Rogan, Deputy MD commented, “Cleveland Bridge has
recently been strengthening its experience in offshore fabrication
including work on BP Clair and Bonga Field FPSO for Amec Offshore. These new projects further
illustrate our abilities and offer up to 25,000 man hours of work for the
Darlington plant between now and September. We would hope that the development of this work will
lead to more projects in the very near future bringing further
consolidation of this area of the business.”
The Buzzard Field is found in the central North Sea,
some 100 kilometres northeast of Aberdeen and 55 kilometres from the
nearest landfall at Peterhead.
