Meet Ulrik: The reconnection to Denmark and surrounding fields

Come behind the scenes of the infrastructure reconnection campaign. Ulrik Phillip, Area Completion Manager for Tyra Redevelopment, takes you on a tour around the riser platform TEE where he provides interesting insights into the main connection points to Denmark and the surrounding fields and the overall campaign.

The Tyra East riser platform or short TEE represents a key gas connection point in the Danish North Sea. Here, the gas will arrive from the surrounding fields and leave the facilities towards Denmark and Europe.  

Before the summer break, Tyra was reconnected to Denmark following the successful installation of the final connecting riser piece on the gas export pipeline to shore. This month, the team successfully completed the Tyra subsea campaign when they executed final works on the new umbilical cable between Tyra East and Tyra West. With the milestone achieved, we are ready to power-up and operate the surrounding satellite fields once again, which is a crucial step towards first gas.

About the Tyra Redevelopment project  

In September 2019, the production from Denmark’s largest gas field, Tyra, has been suspended for its redevelopment which presents the largest single investment in the North Sea ever. Since then, the old facilities were removed and recycled, and eight new platforms were constructed and successfully installed in the Danish North Sea. The redevelopment is now in its very final phase where all hands are on performing thorough tests of the equipment to verify the integrity of the systems, guarantee high quality, and ensure safe work conditions for our crew before gas will enter the new facilities and re-start Tyra’s production in the winter season 2023/24.

Biodiversity studies at Tyra field contribute to the development of offshore wind in the North Sea

In the recent years, it has become clearer than ever before that the North Sea holds a vast potential for the establishment of offshore wind, and TotalEnergies is one of several companies with plans for wind farms. But how does the marine environment react to noise from the construction work? A study from the Tyra project adds new knowledge.

Tyra II’s new home is heading to the North Sea

During two days in mid-February, 5,400 tonnes of steel and 7 storeys of technology, walls, furniture, a hospital, fitness center, control room, and a helicopter landing pad on top were put on wheels. The accommodation platform on Tyra II was then pushed onto a 122 meter long and 36-meter-wide floating barge.

How do you fulfil 64,518 wishes for a home?

Not many people can say they have designed a seven-storey hotel on steel jackets, with a 360-degree view of the sea, space for 80 residents, a restaurant, laundry, hospital, laboratory, and even a helideck on top – in the North Sea 225 km from the west coast of Jutland.

3, 2, 1 – action! – The world’s biggest lift takes centre stage

Absolutely nothing was left to chance. Everything was choreographed down to the smallest detail and everyone had a role to play as if it were a Hollywood production, when the largest platform - the 17,000-tonne process module - was lifted into place on six legged jackets in the North Sea on 4 October 2022.
