The transportation scope will be handled utilizing Seaway7's heavy transportation fleet in addition to the heavy lifting and cable-lay vessels, and the execution of the project will be led from their Aberdeen and Sutton offices in the UK. Offshore activities are scheduled to commence in 2024 after early engineering works throughout 2023.
