Subsequently, in May 2025, Stornes and Nordnes completed the solid ballasting of the EGR in Placentia Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In July, Nordnes installed erosion protection barriers to prevent <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/storage-tanks-faults-causes-and-solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/articulo\/tanques-de-almacenamiento-fallas-causas-y-soluciones\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">erosion barriers<\/a><\/strong> around the structure in the offshore field.
