Construction of the hull is to take place at Kvaerner's Hanoytangen yard on the island of Askoy, which is situated outside of Bergen, some- time during the month of June and is expected to be completed by October of 1994. Once the hull is completed, me- chanical outfitting is then scheduled to continue through February 1995. At that time the topside modules will be lifted onto the hull and be put on line by Hydro. The structure is tentatively scheduled to be towed to its final location in September 1995. The Troll oil platform is reported to be the world's first catenary- moored floating platform with a con- crete hull. It will stand 213.3 feet high and measure 334.7 feet on each side. The Troll oil development was approved by Norwegian authorities in May 1992. Production is expected to begin sometime at the start of the year 1996. Bath Iron Works Awarded $724 Million Navy Contract Bath Iron Works, Bath, Maine, announced that it has been awarded a $724 million Navy contract to build three Aegis-class destroyers. According to the shipyard, the contract award has pushed the back- log of ships on order to approximately $2.4 billion. It also will keep the shipyard working into the year 1998. The shipyard has announced that despite the contract award, it will continue to reduce its workforce to about 8,000 by early 1994. The assistant to the president of the shipyard, Kevin P. Gildart, in- dicated that the cutbacks were due, in part, to the reduction in military shipbuilding over the past few years.
