Subsea7 announced it had been awarded a front-end engineering and design (FEED) study by ConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS for the Previously Produced Fields (PPF) development project offshore Norway.

The FEED scope will finalise the technical definition for a proposed subsea development and will start immediately from Subsea7’s Norway office under a new framework agreement between the parties.

If the project passes final investment decision (FID) and receives authority approval, the operator may exercise an option for a large subsea structures, umbilicals, risers and flowlines (SURF) award to Subsea7. Offshore installation activities linked to that option would be scheduled for 2026 to 2029.

The PPF development is located in the Greater Ekofisk Area, around 290,000 m southwest of Stavanger, and will be connected to the existing Ekofisk Complex. Erik Femsteinevik, Vice President for Subsea7 Norway, said early involvement through the FEED work supports design optimisation ahead of FID.
