Atlantis Deepwater Technology Holding AS
Atlantis Deepwater Technology Holding AS Engineering & ConstructionIndustrial Services Atlantis Deepwater Technology Holding AS is an offshore technology company located in Grimstad, Norway. The company was established in August 2000 in order to commercialize a concept called Atlantis. Atlantis represents a novel method for exploration drilling and field development drilling in deep and ultra deep waters, and may contribute to considerable cost savings to the oil companies operating in the deep water areas. The Atlantis concept has been further developed since the firm was established in 2000 and so far used for the development work. The basic principle of the concept is to use an artificial buoyant seabed, the Atlantis Unit is installed at a shallow depth of approximately 200-400 meters below sea surface as a substitute for the real sea bed. This submerged buoy replaces the functions of the real sea bed and no equipment remains on the sea bed itself. The casing between the AU and the sea bed is used as anchoring for this new sea bed. The first Atlantis Unit constructed as part of a Demo 2000 project was subject to Marine Trials in Gandsfjorden in Stavanger in April 2003, with very positive results. | Industrial Services |
