LONDON – BP has awarded Cape plc a new contract for the Clair Ridge project, with further future phases added over the next 18 months.

Clair Ridge, 75 km west of Shetland, is the second phase of development within Clair field—the largest undeveloped hydrocarbon resource on the UKCS.

The contract is in support of the hook-up and commissioning of BP’s two new bridge-linked Clair Ridge platforms.

Effective from July 2015, the contract will secure around 170 jobs for Cape employees through the provision of core services including access, insulation, coating, passive fire protection and platform services for the Clair Ridge hook-up work.
