Technip, a leader in project management, engineering and construction for the energy industry, has won a lump sum contract from Deep Gulf Energy II for the development of the Odd Job field. 

 

The ultra deepwater field is located in Mississippi Canyon, offshore New Orleans, in the Gulf of Mexico, in water depths ranging from 1,330 to 1,825 m, said a statement.

 

The contract will consist of project management and engineering services; fabrication and installation of 23 km of pipe-in-pipe flowline; fabrication and installation of approximately 2 km of Steel Catenary Riser (SCR); design, fabrication and installation of in-line sled, flowline end termination; fabrication of jumper; and pre-commissioning for the flowline and SCR system.

 

Technip's operating centre in Houston, Texas, will manage the overall project, it said.

 

The SCR and flowline system will be fabricated at the group’s spoolbase in Mobile, Alabama. 

 

The offshore installation is expected to be performed in the summer of next year by Technip’s vessel the Deep Blue, one of the world's largest ultra-deepwater pipelay and subsea construction vessel.

 

Deanna Goodwin, president of Technip in North America, said: “Technip is delighted to continue its strong long-lasting relationship with Deep Gulf Energy and to bring and share its unique experience to this new project.” - TradeArabia News Service
