Heerema’s heavy-lift vessel Thialf was used to perform the lift operation.
Lundin began the final offshore hook-up and commissioning of the modules, with production expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2015.
The company said that two of the production wells have been drilled and are ready to be tied-in to the platform.
