The ship was similar in hull section to the Nydam ship with flared topsides. The hull of the Hutton TLP has been separated from the topsides. Her topsides were wrecked, and a large fire burned amidships. The uppermost along the topsides is called the sheer strake. Oceangoing longships had higher topsides about a high to keep out water. The topsides weight was 18,500 tonnes. The contract for the construction of the platform topsides was awarded to AMEC. The vessel delivered the topsides to Able UK's Seaton Port yard, Teesside, for disposal. There were 14 topsides modules and the topsides weight was 34,000 tonnes. There are two modules with a topsides weight of 5,400 tonnes. Its cross sectional shape was flatter on the bottom with less flare to the topsides. There are 16 topsides modules and the topsides weight was 25,000 tonnes. Many of the topsides modules were constructed locally, with some sourced internationally. The other two topsides named P1 and LQ were installed in March 2019.
