Maersk Viking Arrives Offshore Ghana

Sunday, October 28, 2018

In Ghana, Aker Energy, saw the arrival of the Maersk Viking drill ship on the Deepwater Tano Cape Three Points (DWT / CTP) off Ghana.

The vessel will drill the Pecan-4A evaluation well when all preparations are complete, says Jan Helge Skogen, head of the Norwegian company in Ghana. The work is expected to be completed at a water depth of 2,674 meters approximately 70 miles off the coast of Ghana.

The contract between the two parties contains a clause stating that, if successful, the partners may drill two additional wells.

Drilling is expected to start any day and should last between 30 and 35 days.
