A JV formed between Harkand and Consolidated Shipping Agencies Ltd has resulted in a contract win in Ghana; the JV’s first in West Africa. The award will see the global inspection, repair and maintenance (IRM) company delivering onshore and offshore support to Technip in the region.
Having formed a strategic alliance with Consolidated Shipping Agencies Ltd, the company’s Aberdeen-based Harkand Andrews Survey team will deliver services to Technip on Tullow’s Tweneboa, Enyenra and Ntomme (TEN) project on the Tano block offshore Ghana.
The campaign, set to begin in October, has the survey team managing and supporting all survey requirements on board Technip vessels during offshore construction activities which includes rigid and flexible lay, structure installations, spool metrology, pre-lay and as-built surveys. The work is expected to be completed by mid-2016.
Harkand Andrews Survey managing director Stuart Reid said: “We are delighted that Technip has chosen us to support them during this major project in Ghana and continues our successful long term working relationship with Technip.
“This contract award underlines Harkand’s commitment to working in the West African region in general and Ghana in particular. I believe that this will be the first of many campaigns that we engage in with our local Ghanaian JV partner, Consolidated Shipping Agencies Ltd.”
