Dutch geotechnical services provider 'Fugro' has secured an initial 3-year contract with Well-Safe Solutions, a UK-based offshore well decommissioning service provider

According to Fugro, it will deliver their integrated marine-based solution onboard the Well-Safe Guardian, Well-Safe Solutions’ bespoke semi-submersible unit for executing subsea well decommissioning work.

Last year in July, Netherlands based offshore services provider performs first remote heading control operations for Bluewater FPSO in the North Sea.

The recent contract award gives Fugro responsibility for supplying and supporting remotely operated vehicle (ROV) services, rig positioning, and remote operations.

Expert support will come from Fugro’s remote operations centre in Aberdeen, Scotland: remote access via the onshore team will reduce the number of Fugro personnel required onboard the Well-Safe Guardian asset to improve efficiency and maximize safety.
