SPT Offshore has been awarded the design, fabrication and installation of the suction pile foundation for Statoil Siemens Dudgeon Transformer Substation to support Sembmarine SLP being the main fabricator for this substation.

The four-leg jacket will support the topsides weighing approx. 1,850t.

"We are extremely pleased with this first suction pile founded substation in UK waters," says Mark Riemers MD of SPT Offshore.

"We trust this will create more business for the silently and swiftly installed suction pile foundations in the UK, after having installed several suction pile foundations for oil & gas platforms and subsea structures in the UK North Sea and East Irish Sea."
