Both contracts are for operator Stone Energy. The first contract includes the detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, assembly and testing of a 5in. production static riser (almost 9km-long) as well as all associated hardware.
The second award covers the installation of the pipe as a tieback to the Pompano fixed platform, in about 395m water depth.
Technip’s operating center in Houston, Texas, USA, will manage the project which is scheduled to be completed during the second half of 2015.
The flexible pipe will be manufactured at the Group’s Asiaflex Products plant located in Tanjung Langsat, Malaysia. It will be installed using the Deep Blue, Technip’s deepwater pipelay vessel.
Deanna Goodwin, President of Technip in North America, says: “Technip is proud to bring its experience and to leverage its vertical integration of product design and manufacture and installation vessel fleet to support our customer’s needs."
