Safe & Efficient Decommissioning for Offshore Oil & Gas Sites
Efficient turnkey energy, HVAC, and compressed air solutions
We work with Oil and Gas companies to keep budgets and timelines under control during complex decommissioning projects
Decommissioning projects involve balancing a complex network of daily activities, vendors, contractors, and seasonal shifts in temperature. As a result, many companies find that they struggle to maintain control over costs and work effectively.
We’re a leading provider of Oil and Gas decommissioning solutions and experts in navigating the unseen variables that impact your project’s schedule and costs. Our flexible, efficient, temporary energy and HVAC solutions help you adapt to any new circumstances and stay on track with your targets – including complex offshore platform decommissioning projects where reliable solutions are critical.
We’ll help you:
- Maintain tight control of budgeting with fixed cost, turnkey solutions that avoid project cost creep.
- Adapt your energy and HVAC solutions to fit your needs and phase of decommissioning.
- Scale energy and temperature control up or down in line with seasonal temperature fluctuations.
- Minimize fuel costs with equipment that runs as close to optimum load as possible throughout your project.
Specialized solutions for cost-effective decommissioning
- Tailored energy generation solutions that keep work moving in areas where there is limited or no grid power available. Our experts actively work with you to provide reliable solutions that support your business continuity throughout rig decommissioning and site remediation.
- Support load-on-demand to ensure energy solutions can adapt to the load demand of your site at each stage of decommissioning. By running equipment as close to optimum load as possible, we also help to minimize your fuel costs.
- Cold stacking solutions for rigs allow you to protect critical components while significantly reducing operating costs when idle. Having the flexibility to scale up or down to match these changes in power needs gives you the power to keep costs optimized.
- Fully integrated plug-and-play battery storage solutions that ensure maximum system efficiency and effectiveness, reducing fuel costs by storing excess cheaper renewable energy for later use. This reduces your thermal fuel consumption and your carbon footprint, supporting safe and efficient energy removal from retired infrastructure.
- Engineered temperature solutions that keep your project’s temperature at the best levels for peak performance, including for applications like storage tank cooling.
- Microgrid solutions made up of generators, electrical distribution equipment, and control platforms, designed to support decommissioning processes when working in remote areas. Microgrids can be used full time or help to protect your productivity during planned or unplanned outages, minimizing the risk of downtime and delays to your decommissioning projects.

Frequently asked questions
Decommissioning is a multi-stage process that includes planning, plugging wells, dismantling infrastructure, and restoring the site. Each project must comply with strict safety and environmental standards. As offshore platform decommissioning processes often take place in remote and often temperamental environments, reliable and adaptable HVAC and industrial site closure energy solutions are critical to maintain safety, avoid delays, and control costs.
Decommissioning a well involves killing the well with heavy fluids, installing cement plugs to isolate zones, removing casing, and dismantling the wellhead. The site is then cleared and surveyed to meet regulations. It’s a high-risk process, so consistent energy and environmental control are essential for safe, efficient operations – including temporary energy for asset removal where traditional infrastructure is no longer viable.
Decommissioning includes shutting down infrastructure, managing idle assets, and dismantling equipment, often in off-grid or offshore environments. With changing energy needs and complex logistics, modern Oil and Gas decommissioning solutions – including flexible energy, HVAC, and load-on-demand – are key to staying on budget and avoiding delays, especially when conditions shift or timelines are tight.
Aggreko provides tailored, turnkey energy and HVAC solutions that adapt to your site and project phase. From cold stacking to battery storage and microgrids, we help you cut fuel costs, reduce emissions, and stay operational in remote areas. Whether you’re planning full rig decommissioning and site remediation or looking for safe and efficient energy removal, our expert support ensures timely, cost-effective project delivery.
