In March of 2021, Archer Limited (Archer) again awarded Derrick and their distributor, Rotor Offshore, a shale shaker upgrade for an Equinor platform rig.

This contract is four Dual Pool® 626 Vapor Extraction (VE) shale shakers for Equinor’s Visund platform located in the Tampen area of the Norwegian North Sea. Due to spacing constrictions on the rig, the shakers required customization and Derrick’s engineering team was able to adapt their standard design for the project. This is the seventh shaker upgrade with Dual Pool 626 shaker on Equinor platform rigs. It also marks the third offshore rig upgrade in Norway that our Distributor partner, Rotor Offshore, has won since joining the Derrick team in 2019. Delivery is scheduled for September 2021 following a witnessed FAT.

Previous contract awards for Dual Pool 626 shakers include Norway platform rigs Statfjord A, B, and C; Grane; and Njord A as well as Peregrino A located offshore Brazil.
