Liberty Industrial Executes Blowdown of the Northern Producer in Scotland

In a “first of its kind” approach for such an asset, Liberty Industrial leveraged international experts to execute the explosive demolition of the Northern Producer Platform on the 13th of June, 2024, as part of a ten-month program to decontaminate, demolish, recycle and dispose of the platform in a dry dock. With an overall weight of 11,500 tonnes, Liberty Industrial determined that the safest methodology would be to bring the topside to reduced height by means of explosive techniques. The sophisticated demolition design, developed in collaboration with expert subcontractors, facilitated the controlled collapse using explosive charges in 38 locations on the platform, marking it as one of the largest single use of explosives at a demolition site in Europe at the time of the project. This process ensured the NP fell in a precisely controlled, symmetrical method towards the back wall of the dry dock onto itself.
