The engineering design work will include flow assurance definition and design of the subsea system connecting the wellhead platform to the FPSO including the flexible flowlines, dynamic risers and a mid-water arch structure.

McDermott will provide engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning (EPCIC) for 30 miles (50 km) of pipeline and approximately 9 miles (15 km) of umbilical to connect five drill centres to a new offshore platform.

The survey is designed to illuminate the regional plays in the ultra-deep and deepwater areas with a new azimuth and to provide prospectivity insights of an oil-prone area in relation to recent key wells and the shallow water geology.

The topside modification contract award from ConocoPhillips follows final investment decision by the licence partners and the completion of the front-end engineering and design (FEED) work, awarded in October 2020.

The job was completed as the Stena Carron ship sailed from the Caribbean to a position off the Guyana coast, where it is currently carrying out drilling operations.

Siemens Energy will supply the complete packages for the electrical transmission, distribution, and power management system (PMS) for the Troll West electrification project in the North Sea.

Based on satellite technology, the solution lets oil and gas companies measure real-time well temperature and pressure on unconnected wells in remote and offshore locations.

The drilling programme for wells 35/10-7 S and A relates to the drilling of a wildcat well and an appraisal well.

The study will involve the acquisition, analysis and interpretation of seabed sediment samples and heat flow measurements to help assess the region’s resource potential.

The work, which is being managed out of Ardyne’s Aberdeen headquarters, has commenced and is expected to last up to four years across two assets in the North Sea.
