The last of the Tui Oil Field’s subsea infrastructure has been removed and returned to shore, bringing the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment’s Tui Project’s decommissioning activities to a close.
Sapura Energy Australia, using its construction support vessel Sapura Constructor, has successfully cut and recovered the remaining two wellheads. Earlier, Sapura had removed four mid-water arch systems. Each of these systems comprised a 60-tonne arch the size of two double-decker buses, suspended on chains above a 100-tonne base.
