Hanze is Veba Oil's first operatorship and the largest field to be developed in the Dutch North Sea. It lies in block F/2 in the Dutch sector of the North Sea, about 200km northwest of Den Helder. The field has reserves exceeding 34 million barrels of oil, as well as 40bcf of associated gas.

As part of the Hanze Field Development Project VEBA Oil awarded the job on a turnkey basis to Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI), Korea. HHI retained our company for carrying out certain detailed engineering for the Gravity Based Structure (GBS) and entire topside facilities on Integrated Production Decks (IPD) including the flare structure. Major work was completed by mid 2000.

Facilities on the production and storage platform include oil separator, oil storage, gas dehydration, power generation, open and closed drain system, flare & blowdown system, safety systems including fire and gas detection, fire fighting etc.

The platform has been designed for following capacities:
          Max Oil Case                       : 5000 Sm3/d
          Max Water Case                  : 6800 Sm3/d
          Max Fluid Intake                  : 8000 Sm3/d
          Gas Oil Ratio                       : 100 Sm3/ Sm3
          Oil Offloading Flow Rate        : 1500 Sm3/hr
          Gas Pipeline Capacity           : 500000 Sm3/d
          Water Injection Flow Rate      : 9000 m3/d

KEPPEL FELS (KFELS) – SINGAPORE was awarded the contract by Vietsopetro to install the Central Processing Platform (CPP-3) in the White Tiger Oil Field. This platform is a basic component of Central Processing Complex (CPC) in the area of BK-4 of the White Tiger Oil Field of Southern dome offshore Vietnam.

Our company was retained by KFELS as the Engineering Contractor on a back-to-back basis. We carried out the complete Basic and Detail Engineering related to Piping, Structural, Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation and Safety and also provided other support services.

The production capacity of CPP-3 is about 19,000 t/d of liquid out of which up to 15000 t/d of stock tank oil & up to 12,000 t/d of reservoir water are produced. The platform contains process facilities for 3 stage Oil Separation including Electrostatic Dehydration, Oil Stabilization, Oil Storage, Oil Export, Gas Compression, Gas Metering, Produce Water System, Flare and Blowdown System, Open and Closed Drain System etc.
