Gjøa Norway Platform Gets Electricity from Mainland

On Sunday, July 11, Statoil switched on the power, making Gjøa Norway’s first floating platform to get electricity from the mainland. “This is a good example of how Statoil can play a part in solving some of the climate challenges in collaboration with the supplies industry,” said Bjørn Midttun, head of subsea installations, pipelines and marine operations on the Gjøa field. Statoil had considered supplying the platform with electricity from the mainland, right from the start of the Gjøa project.
