Engineering firm delivering offshore projects for energy industry, Subsea 7, has announced its first contract award for the year 2022. The company revealed that it has secured a substantial project to install subsea services concerning Beacon Offshore Energy’s Shenandoah Development. The Project is located in the Gulf of Mexico in water depths up to 6,300 feet.
The Luxembourgish-domiciled engineering firm reported a series of contract awards last year. These included a large contract in December for the Subsea Integration Alliance by Woodside for the Scarborough project, located roughly 380km offshore Northwest Australia.
The company shares on its website that any project falling between US$150 million and US$300 million of worth is considered to be a substantial one.
The company informed that the Project encompasses the tie-back of four subsea wells to the Shenandoah host facility via a subsea manifold with dual flowlines and risers. The company will be responsible for engineering, procurement, construction, installation (EPIC), and subsea equipment commission. The company will also undertake the wet tow and hook-up of the semi-submersible FPS to the field and the mooring system installation.
Commenting on the Beacon Offshore Energy deal Craig Broussard, Vice President for Subsea 7 US, said: “We look forward to building on the collaborative approach demonstrated by the Shenandoah project to form a prolonged cooperative relationship supporting Beacon’s future growth plans.”
Financials of the company:
