The Luxembourg-headquartered offshore energy player Subsea7 has announced the award of a contract by Norway-based Vår Energi for the Goliat Gas Export Project, located offshore Norway in the Barents Sea.
According to Subsea7, the scope of work includes engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) of a 12.7 kilometres 10‑inch uninsulated carbon steel pipeline, along with the installation of associated subsea infrastructure required to safely and reliably tie in the gas export system.
Project management and engineering activities will start immediately from Subsea7’s office in Stavanger, Norway with the offshore operations scheduled to take place during 2027–2028.
Subsea7 states that the contract is valued as being between $150m and $300m.
“We are proud to be awarded the Goliat Gas Export Project, which represents the first contract awarded under our new strategic partnership agreement with Vår Energi. This is an important milestone that demonstrates the strong foundation of trust and collaboration already established between our organisations. Together, we share a clear commitment to early engagement, predictable delivery, and safe, efficient execution. Working closely from the outset places us in a strong position to create value and deliver a high‑quality solution for this important development,” says Erik Femsteinevik, vice president for Subsea7 Norway.
