Seaway 7 Awarded Contract for Floating Offshore Wind Farm Project


Variable Bore Rams Adds New Dual-String Interlocking Shear Rams to Inventory


Variable Bore Rams Inc. (VBR), the largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) ram and blowout preventer (BOP) component provider in the world, has added Cameron’s new dual-string interlocking (DSI) shear rams to its inventory.


Seaway 7, Subsea 7’s Renewables and Heavy Lifting business unit, has been awarded a contract from Equinor Energy AS for the installation of 11 inner array and two export cables on the Hywind Tampen floating offshore wind farm project, offshore Norway.


The Hywind Tampen project is an 88 MW offshore wind farm comprising 11 wind turbines, each being supported by a floating foundation structure. The field is located between the Snorre (PL089) and Gullfaks (PL050) licenses, to which the windfarm will provide electricity.


Steph McNeill, SVP Subsea 7 Renewables & Heavy Lifting, said: “We look forward to continuing our long-standing, collaborative working relationship with Equinor and supporting them on their energy transition journey, with the development of their pioneering floating offshore wind farm.”


Hywind Tampen wind farm contracts are subject to final approval of the plan for development and operation (PDO) by Norwegian authorities. The wind farm is scheduled to start production at the end of 2022.

The DSI shear rams enhance operational flexibility with an innovative performance-improving ram interlocking mechanism. Arms on the upper ram prevent any vertical separation between the lower and upper blades, shearing wireline and braided cable with zero tension in the line. Without the need for a foldover shoulder, the DSI shear rams have the capacity to shear larger diameter pipe and casing.


Chip Marshall, Chief Executive Officer and President, VBR, said, “The new dual-string interlocking shear rams are completely new and unique in the industry, complying with upcoming Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) requirements for Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) drilling platforms. The shearing capability of the new DSI rams far surpasses that of any other rams on the market, providing a valuable extra layer of safety to operations on site.”


The DSI shear rams are available in 13-5/8 in. 3-10 M Cameron U/UM BOPs.


Expro Awarded Contract Extension with INPEX, Offshore Australia


International oilfield services company Expro has secured a contract extension to supply well test and subsea services for INPEX-operated, Ichthys LNG.


The contract will see Expro continue to supply a high rate 175 MMscf/day well testing package, which will include enhanced electronic emergency shut down (ESD) systems.


Expro will also supply 7 3/8" high debris valves, developed as part of the Next Generation Landing String (NGLS) program, designed and tested to the industry’s new API 17G standard.


Expro meets its clients’ needs through compliance to industry standards, ability to offer high temperature and advanced cutting capabilities, alongside ensuring integrity.


Mrinal Vohra, Expro’s Region Vice President of Asia Pacific, said: “Since 2014, Expro has delivered a solid track record on the INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG, completing 18 wells to date. This contract extension allows us to continue to flow back the wells at maximum rates using our market leading technology, as well as delivering high levels of safety and service delivery for this high profile project.


“We are delighted to continue working with INPEX in the delivery of this highly technical and complex, major subsea development project.”


Work on the next phase of field development is due to commence March 2020.
