The order includes the design, engineering and manufacturing of a riser isolation valve (RIV) control system as well as other subsea production equipment. The RIV control system will be installed on the floating production unit (FPU) to provide shutdown of production fluids.
The Whale FPU will operate in the Gulf of Mexico's Alaminos Canyon Block 773, pending a positive final investment decision later this year.
