PARIS, FRANCE: Technip SA said that it has been awarded a lump sum contract by Deep Gulf Energy II LLC, for the development of the Odd Job field. This 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 metres.
The offshore installation is expected to be performed in the summer of 2016 by Technip’s vessel the Deep Blue.
The contract covers project management, engineering services, fabrication and installation of approximately 23 kilometres of pipe-in-pipe flowline with associated Steel Catenary Riser (SCR) for approx 2 kilometres.
In addition it consists of design, fabrication and installation of in-line sled, flowline end termination, and jumper, also to pre-commission the flowline and SCR system.
This new award highlights the unique vertical integration of Technip in the subsea business environment, covering all aspects of this field development from engineering to design, manufacturing and installation.
Technip's operating centre in Houston, US will manage the overall project. The SCR and flowline system will be fabricated at the group’s spoolbase in Mobile, Alabama, US.
“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,” said Deanna Goodwin, president of Technip in North America.
