Frigg decommissioning
The Frigg field straddles the boundary between the Norwegian and the UK Continental Shelves in the North Sea. Production started in September 1977 and stopped on 26 October 2004. On 26 October 2004 it was also announced that Aker Kvaerner was awarded the major contract for the removal work.

Decommissioning is an equally important part of our role as operator of the Frigg field, just as the exploration, the development and the operating phases have been.  The decommissioning work will be carried out with the same high standards for health, safety and environment as during our operation of the field. The removal of the various facilities will be challenging and our main objective is to carry out the work with great attention to safety and the environment.

We aim at keeping the stakeholders informed about the Frigg field decommissioning process over the coming years.
