*The North Morecambe Eductor and metering project team were responsible for the design, fabrication and installation of a 70 tonne access walkway on the unmanned Centrica North Morecambe gas production platform, in the East Irish Sea. This included an Eductor package to prevent back-out of the North Morecambe wells and a metering package to accurately record the flows. This £16million project, executed in 2015, provides incremental production of gas sustaining energy for 100,000 UK homes. The integrated project team made up of individuals from a range of companies, safely and efficiently delivered the scope on time and within budget.
