Global energy technology company SLB announced that its OneSubsea joint venture has been awarded a contract by bp to provide a subsea boosting system for the Thunder Horse project, a development in the deepwater portion of Gulf of America.

This engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract for Thunder Horse follows recent subsea boosting contract awards for bp’s Kaskida and Tiber developments.

 All three projects leverage the same supplier-led, standardised subsea boosting system solution, which helps improve execution efficiency and shorten delivery times.

As part of the EPC contract, SLB OneSubsea will deliver a subsea boosting system, alongside associated project management, engineering, manufacturing, and testing required for execution.

“Subsea boosting is an important enabler for extending production from existing assets,” said Mads Hjelmeland, CEO of SLB OneSubsea. “Our standardised subsea solutions support faster deployment and improved efficiency, helping operators enhance production and recovery while optimising overall field performance.” -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
