Sealift sails

Kristen Nelson

The first sealift for BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc.’s Northstar project left Anchorage July 19.

The barge carried the three-story, 700-ton permanent living quarters and utility module, a 115-ton tank skid and nine pipe racks.

The module was assembled by VECO Construction at North Star Terminal. VECO Engineering did infrastructure design, Arctic Structures Inc. built the quarters and Rockford Inc. built tankage. The pipe racks, 140 tons each, were built by Natchiq Inc. subsidiary Alaska Petroleum Contractors in South Anchorage.

The 2001 sealift will include two process modules, compressor module, pump skid and warehouse and shop building. The process modules weigh in at 3,500 tons and 3,700 tons and the compressor module at 3,500 tons.
