Intro
Åsgard C is a floating storage vessel (FSO) for condensate located at the Åsgard field in the Norwegian Sea. Commissioned in 2000, it supports storage and shuttle tanker export of condensate produced from Åsgard and tied-in satellite fields.
Field
The Åsgard hydrocarbon province includes several accumulations developed via subsea wells tied back to floating production and processing facilities, producing oil, gas and condensate. Åsgard C functions as the main condensate storage hub within this system.
Facilities
Åsgard C is a storage tanker moored in the Åsgard field, connected via flexible risers to the subsea and floating processing network. It receives stabilized condensate from Åsgard B and associated facilities. The vessel’s storage tanks hold large volumes of condensate prior to transfer to shuttle tankers. Onboard systems include cargo handling pumps, ballast control, inert gas systems, metering and safety shutdowns. Electrical power is provided for cargo and utility operations, and the vessel interfaces with field control systems for synchronized export operations. Station keeping uses mooring spread and riser management equipment to maintain riser integrity. Condensate storage supports export logistics separate from oil and gas export infrastructure.
