Halliburton Receives Statoil Contract for Langeled Pipeline

The Pipeline and Process Services Department of Halliburton AS, the Halliburton affiliate in Norway, has been awarded a contract for precommissioning of the Langeled pipeline by Statoil AS. The 42- to 44-inch pipeline, which is 1,200 kilometers long, will provide gas to Ormen Lange from Western Norway to the United Kingdom.

"Halliburton's involvement in this project continues Halliburton's Pipeline and Process Services Department's association with large pipeline projects and Statoil's RFO Group," said Jorunn Saetre, Halliburton's country vice president for Norway. "Though challenging, we look forward to providing solutions for success, such as mobilizing and coordinating the volume and diversity of equipment required on several sites."

Engineering design work will begin this year with the precommissioning operation phase occurring in 2006 and 2007. The project consists of pigging, hydrostatic testing, dewatering and drying the pipeline with work locations onshore in the UK and Norway, and offshore both on Sleipner Platform and on vessels.

The estimated value for this award is $143 MNOK (USD $22 million).

The Ormen Lange development operator, Hydro, has contracted project execution of the Langeled transport system to Statoil, and the project organisation is staffed with personnel from both Statoil and Hydro.
