Technip and Subsea 7 will be working together offshore Ghana on a USD $1.23 billion SURF project for Tullow Ghana announced today.
The Tweneboa-Enyenra-Ntomme Development (TEN) Project, located in the deepwater Tano Contract Area, 60 kilometers off the coast of Ghana at a water depth reaching up to 2,000 meters, will consist of 24 development wells connected through subsea infrastructure to a Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO), moored in approximately 1,500 meters of water.
Technip and Subsea 7 will be responsible for the engineering, fabrication, and installation of the subsea architecture of this project, including:
Technip’s share of the project is about USD $730 milllion and Subsea 7’s is around $500 million.
Subsea 7 notes that the offshore installation will commence in mid- 2015, using the 2012-built heavy lift / pipelay vessel, Seven Borealis.
The Seven Borealis, pictured above, is an ULSTEIN SOC5000 design vessel measuring 182.2 x 46.2 meters, with a moulded draft of 16.1 meters. The vessel is equipped with the world’s largest revolving mast crane, capable of lifting 5,000 mT (at 40 m) over the stern. The crane has a maximum operating water depth of 6000 m with single fall.
The project completion date is projected for the second half of 2016.
