AF Decom to decommision 6 off Shell platforms in the North Sea
AF Gruppen (AFG), has today signed an interim agreement with Shell U.K. Limited (Shell) regarding the decommissioning of 6 platforms from the Indefatigable gas field. This field is located in the British sector of the North Sea.
The commitment under this interim agreement is limited to preparatory work. Negotiations on the final contract are ongoing and execution of the final contract is subject to Project Final Investment Decision by Shell. The value of the full contract scope is expected to be around 230 MNOK. AF Decom Offshore, part of AF Gruppen`s environmental business, will carry out the offshore lift preparations and onshore dismantling activities for the Inde Decommissioning project.
Preparatory work is underway for the offshore platform decommissioning activity due to start in early 2009. The project is scheduled for 3 years.
As part of the work, AF Decom Offshore is set to recycle around 13,000 tonnes of steel and equipment from the Inde structures.
The location of the onshore dismantling activities will be the subject of a separate announcement.
-This is the fifth decommissioning project AF Gruppen has undertaken offshore, and the second in the British sector of the North Sea. The agreement strengthens our strategic target of delivering environmental services, and is recognition of our competence in dismantling and recycling offshore steel structures internationally. The contract forms the basis for further growth in our environmental business in the North Sea, says Pål Egil Rønn, CEO of AF Gruppen.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
