Engineering consultancy Longitude Engineering has been appointed by Egypt’s PETROSAFE (Egypt Oil & Gas Sector – HSE), to deliver a Fitness for Future Service assessment on the Warda platform offshore Egypt, owned by one of Egypt’s Oil & Gas Sector Production Companies.

The Warda platform is a four-leg jacket supporting wellhead and production facilities within the Al-Zaafarana oilfield in the north central Gulf of Suez, Egypt.

PETROSAFE and Longitude’s scope of work comprises an extensive engineering assessment to ensure the platform has adequate strength and fatigue life. Project deliveries include an engineering assessment of the historical platform design, the installation plan, and previous inspection documentation.

Further, PETROSAFE and Longitude’s scope of work covers the development of offshore underwater and topside inspection plans, and preparation of a structural integrity assessment including seismic, in-place, natural frequency and fatigue analyses.
