Repsol Sinopec Awards Nigg Oil Terminal Decommissioning Contract

16th Dec 22

Repsol Sinopec is pleased to announce it has awarded a decommissioning contract to Liberty Industrial Ltd (Liberty) for the decontamination, demolition and site remediation of Nigg Oil Terminal.

Planning and engineering work will begin in December 2022, with decommissioning activity commencing in 2023 and expected to continue until 2025. The site will be handed back to the leaseholder (Global Energy Group) at the end of 2025.

The Nigg Oil Terminal was commissioned in 1981 by the British National Oil Corporation as part of the Beatrice complex development. The large site spreads across 75 acres and consists of a large-scale crude oil process, storage and export facility that will require decontamination prior to the demolition and site remediation process.

The project will be an integrated effort between the Repsol Sinopec project and site teams, who harbour the history and knowledge of the work site, and the decommissioning specialist contractor Liberty to ensure all hazards are identified and the correct, fit for purpose decommissioning procedure enacted safely.
