🌊⚙️ Decommissioning Success in the Dutch Sector of the North Sea 🌊⚙️ We are delighted to share our recent decommissioning project in the Dutch sector of the North Sea. Focused on well severance operations, we successfully tackled the challenge of decommissioning sophisticated multi-string wells with non-cemented cavities. Check out the case study for an in-depth look at our innovative solutions and expertise: https://hubs.ly/Q02S1jcS0 #SubseaInnovation #Decommissioning #NorthSea #SustainableSolutions

🌊🛢️ Project Recap: Claxton’s Well Abandonment Success in the Northern North Sea 🌊🛢️ Claxton was contracted by EXCEED Energy to abandon five wells in the Northern North Sea. We were awarded both phases of the well abandonment scope. The first phase involved plugging the wells to prevent environmental harm, while the second phase focused on devising and implementing a solution for wellhead severance and recovery. Learn how we enabled the operator to abandon five wells across two oil fields, reducing project costs and carbon footprint, and minimising environmental impact. https://hubs.ly/Q02S1dTw0 #WellAbandonment #OffshoreEngineering #NorthSea

Earlier this week, Claxton, a Step Change in Safety member, welcomed Step Change CEO Craig Wiggins, who provided a presentation to all staff on driving safety culture and specifically on human performance principles. The presentation was followed by a lively discussion with all team members about safety and tangible ways we can continue to drive this forward. Claxton has recently conducted its Step Change in Safety annual survey, which is used as a tool to gauge staff perception of the company’s safety performance and areas to celebrate or build on. Laura Claxton, Claxton COO, commented: “The presentation was engaging and a brilliant segue into our ‘Safety Conversation Week’ next week. Our team in Stavanger looks forward to his visit.” #safety #stepchangeinsafety #safetyintheworkplace

🤝 Claxton Partners with Jumbo Maritime at #Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm 🌊 We are thrilled to have recently collaborated with Jumbo Maritime to provide our bespoke engineered underwater abrasive cutting and lifting tool at the Yunlin offshore wind farm in Taiwan. Two monopiles were successfully recovered after being cut into sections and brought onboard the vessel. From project planning and mobilisation to execution and completion, this project was a huge success. 📝 Learn more about our services: https://hubs.ly/Q02QpCCB0 #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #EngineeringSolutions #Claxton #Taiwan

Claxton’s First Annual Open Day at Stavanger Facility 🌞 On Wednesday 18 September, Claxton hosted its first annual Open Day at our Stavanger Facility. The sun was shining, and it was unusually warm for mid-September, setting the perfect tone for the day! We extend our thanks to the 100+ clients who visited us to explore our facilities, view various pieces of equipment on display, hear from our subject matter experts, and engage in discussions. A special thank you to our incredible team and TT Meat for making the day a resounding success. https://hubs.ly/Q02QscV50

Claxton designed and built a bespoke monopile cutting and recovery tool to facilitate the removal of overdriven, tapered monopiles with diameters ranging from 6.5m to 8.5m at the Yunlin Offshore Wind Farm in Taiwan. The monopiles were segmented into sections, each weighing approximately 75 tonnes, and subsequently recovered to the deck. The video below highlights this operation, showcasing the scale of the work completed in collaboration with our project partner, Jumbo Maritime. This project exemplifies an innovative solution, offering a safe and cost-effective method for the subsea recovery of run-off or overdriven monopiles during the installation phase, as well as providing reliable equipment for end-of-life monopile decommissioning.

Join us at the 2024 Rio Oil & Gas Conference! We are excited to announce that Craig Baxter CEng MIET, Claxton’s Decommissioning Technical Manager, will be speaking at the P&A and Decommissioning Session. Craig will present our underwater laser cutting technology and its transformative benefits for oilfield infrastructure decommissioning. Craig shares, “Our underwater laser cutting technology has been proven effective in underwater environments, offering a viable alternative to mechanical or abrasive water jet cutting. This technology has a wide range of applications, including offshore oil and gas, windfarm decommissioning, and in-pond nuclear decommissioning tasks.” Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about the future of decommissioning technology! https://hubs.ly/Q02Qhvtp0 #RioOilAndGas2024 #Decommissioning #Innovation #UnderwaterTechnology #OilAndGas #WindfarmDecommissioning #NuclearDecommissioning
