Bluewater Wins Huge Angolan Kaombo Job

Tuesday, June 10, 2014

Bluewater Energy Services B.V. has secured a contract with Saipem SA for the engineering of two complete deepwater Turret Mooring Systems and the related procurement and construction of two turret and swivel systems for an Angolan project.

The two turret mooring systems will be part of two converted FPSO units, owned by Total, for the Kaombo deepwater field development project on Block 32. The Kaombo development scheme includes 59 subsea wells, connected through around 300 km of subsea lines, to two FPSO units, each with a production capacity of 125,000 bpd.

“With an extensive track record in Turret Mooring Systems already, this project is a great opportunity for Bluewater to strengthen its position as one of the few worldwide specialists and suppliers of large complex Turret Mooring System,” says Hugo J. Heerema, president and CEO of Bluewater Energy Services B.V.
