Critical issues:

• The offshore operational activities needed to be reduced and more efficient work processes focusing on the core activities to maintain production and safety needed to be developed
• This implied significant changes to daily work for personnel offshore and onshore
• Trust in the work process and acceptance of the future solutions by the stakeholders, particularly employees and labour unions representatives, were essential to achieve the overall goals

Solutions:

• In the initial phase, we carried out a feasibility study with the aim of identifying possible project "stoppers" related to the change process, operational and maintenance limitations, and personnel safety
• Our mission was to ensure successful execution and implementation of future solutions to operate and maintain the platform safely and cost-efficiently

Value delivered:

• DNV secured a professional and consistent change process towards a more effective and lean organisation
• Through thorough safety and emergency preparedness studies, it was demonstrated to all stakeholders that the overall safety level would be maintained
• Verification based on previous experience with maintenance and operability assessments ensured that the proposed solutions were feasible and would meet the economical goals
