Wood Group Kenny mans up for BPs Quad 204 Project

Wood Group Kenny has been appointed by BP to provide engineering design and project

management services for the subsea, umbilical, riser and flowline (SURF) infrastructure

for BPs Quad 204 redevelopment project West of Shetland. Wood Group Kenny is

responsible for the design of $1.2 billion worth of subsea, pipeline and riser infrastructure

for the project. The dedicated engineering team is already 50 strong and will expand to

75 in the near future.

Mike Ogden, Wood Group Kennys project manager for Quad 204 says, This project

presents significant technical challenges integrating new infrastructure within an existing

brownfield development. Specific issues include proving the remaining or extended

design life of existing systems, challenging metocean conditions and the inclusion of 21

new risers, 15 new flowlines, a range of structures, a re-designed umbilical distribution

and control system and 25 new wells into a restricted area already containing 52 wells.

WGK are responsible for engineering the entire SURF system from the trees to the

connections within the new FPSO and supporting BP through the delivery, testing,

installation and commissioning of these systems.

Andrew Train, BPs Project Director, Offshore Activities says, The recent sanction of the

Quad 204 project represents a very significant investment for BP and its Partners in the

North Sea. While the industry at large has been aware of the replacement FPSO, the

scale and complexity of redevelopment associated with the subsea system has gone

relatively unnoticed. In many ways it is likely that redevelopment of the subsea system

will be larger than the original development scheme. To manage a project of this scale

and complexity and attract the best talent in the industry we have co-located a growing

BP and Wood Group Kenny team in a project office in the centre of Aberdeen. This

office will be a hub of activity allowing detailed design work to be progressed by Wood

Group Kenny and facilitate interaction with key suppliers and contractors.
