What Does Decommissioning Entail?

As offshore facilities and vessels age amidst the global energy transition, there's a growing industry focus on safe and ethical decommissioning and recycling. Sustainable operations are becoming increasingly prioritized as owners and operators balance regulations with environmental stewardship. Safety remains paramount throughout an offshore asset's lifecycle, including its end-of-life phase.

 

Decomissioning activates encompass various situations posing risks to both crew and the environment, such as aging infrastructure and assets with potential structural issues. Whether at the site or recycling yards, these situations can result in crew injury or the unwanted release of hazardous materials.

 

Maintaining asset integrity throughout the decommissioning process is crucial for protecting the environment and personnel.
