Celeros FT’s Commitment to Sustainability in Offshore Oil and Gas: The Power from Shore Project

Celeros Flow Technology (Celeros FT) is making strides in the decarbonization of offshore oil and gas operations in the North Sea with their recent contract win to provide two new water injection packages for the AKER/OKEA power from shore project off the coast of Norway. The company’s commitment to sustainability is evident in their decision to replace gas turbine-driven units with electric options, utilizing Norway’s renewable electricity resources to reduce carbon footprint.

Celeros FT’s ClydeUnion Pumps brand will fulfill the contract, with the skidded packages being assembled at their main site in Glasgow. Tommy Kassem, CCO of Celeros FT, emphasized the importance of transitioning to greener energy sources in order to combat climate change and create a cleaner future. The company is well-positioned to support operators in this transition and looks forward to continuing their efforts towards a more sustainable future.

The Draugen platform, located approximately 145 km off the coast of Norway, is being upgraded with an electrical power supply from a new substation onshore as part of a larger project led by Aker Solutions. This project aims to replace both the main power and water injection pump turbines with electric options, expected to be completed in 2026 with an estimated CO2 savings of up to 200,000 tpy.

Overall, this article highlights the ongoing efforts of companies like Celeros FT towards transitioning offshore oil and gas operations towards cleaner energy solutions in line with global efforts towards combating climate change.
