Tyra Project – Denmark
End User: Total Energies
The Tyra field has been at the heart of Denmark’s energy infrastructure for nearly 40 years. Located 225 km off the west coast of Denmark, Tyra has processed more than 90% of the country’s natural gas since its inception. Its redevelopment, which has become necessary due to natural subsidence of the reservoir, is an opportunity to secure and revitalize production whilst also enabling a reduced environmental footprint and optimization of the energy efficiency of its operations and lower emissions.
The modernized, revitalized Tyra II requires a large-scale technical and logistical mobilization, involving the decommissioning and removal of the obsolete facilties, plus the installation of eight brand-new Tyra platforms – including six well head and riser platforms, an accommodation platform, and a process platform. The final step in the transformation will be to power up the platforms and reconnect them to the existing North Sea energy infrastructure. First gas from Tyra II is expected in the winter season 2023/24.
Tyra’s transformation will also have a significant impact on its energy efficiency: CO2 emissions will be reduced by 30% and flaring can be reduced by 90%.
