Installation & Removal

Delivering Value Throughout the FPSO Lifecycle

As Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) developments move into deeper waters and existing assets approach end-of-life, Heerema provides the offshore expertise, vessels and execution capability required to construct and decommission oil & gas fields from initial installation through final field retirement.

 

Why Heerema Marine Contractors?
Heerema combines decades of offshore experience, world-class assets, and supplier-independent execution to deliver safe, efficient, and purpose-built solutions across the full lifecycle of offshore energy assets, from installation and operations support to decommissioning and removal.

Proven experience across the asset lifecycle

From greenfield developments and brownfield modifications to complex decommissioning, Heerema has a proven track record of delivering offshore projects worldwide. Our experience includes transport & installation of major deepwater projects, including associated FPSO and floating production facilities. In recent years we have been involved in major end-of-life decommissioning and salvage campaigns of the same developments.

Industry-leading deep water installation capability

Aegir and Balder combine heavy-lift offshore crane capacity, large deck space, and advanced deepwater lowering systems to execute demanding offshore campaigns. Our capabilities extend from lifts of up to 5,000 mT to deepwater installation of 1,400 mT at 2,000 m water depth and 350 mT at 4,000 m, supporting all deepwater construction and decommissioning scopes.
