Bilfinger UK set to create 300 new job following TotalEnergies contract

Aberdeen based Bilfinger UK has secured a contract to deliver fabric maintenance services on TotalEnergies’ Elgin and Franklin platforms located in the central North Sea.

The contract will support a 270-day campaign on the installations and will start in March 2022, creating 300 jobs.

Bilfinger will provide fabric maintenance, scaffolding and rope access personnel.

The contract win follows Bilfinger starting a five-year inspection contract for TotalEnergies’ Danish North Sea assets in July 2021.

Mike Henderson, business development and commercial director at Bilfinger UK, said: “We’ve supported TotalEnergies to operate and maintain its North Sea assets for more than a decade.

“This new contract win is testament to the strong relationship we’ve built with the operator’s team over this period, and to the skills and expertise within Bilfinger for successfully delivering critical offshore projects. We’re proud to be part of the team helping to extend the life of these offshore assets.”

In January this year.Bilfinger Salamis UK now trades under the new Bilfinger UK brand following its merger with Warrington-based Bilfinger UK.

The merger, combining the onshore and offshore capabilitie s of the two businesses, forms one of the UK’s largest integrated services contractors, with 4,500 employees during peak periods and 14 onshore locations across the UK’s key industrial hubs.
