Subsea 7 has been awarded a contract by Fieldwood Energy to Subsea Integration Alliance on Oct. 2, a global partnership between Subsea 7 and OneSubsea, a Schlumberger company.

The award is for the deepwater Katmai field development in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico’s (GoM) Green Canyon 40.

This supplier-led integrated subsea development solution, combines OneSubsea’s subsea production systems and Subsea 7’s subsea umbilicals, riser and flowline systems expertise.

The Subsea 7 scope includes project management, engineering, procurement, construction and installation of 40 km (24 miles) of pipe-in-pipe production flowline (12-inch outer pipe and 8-inch inner pipe), together with subsea structures, tie-ins to the Tarantula Platform and pre-commissioning expertise. The OneSubsea scope includes provision of three trees (with options for two additional trees), connectors, valves, topside controls, flying leads and umbilical termination assemblies.

Co-located teams from both organizations will support project management and engineering in Houston, Texas. Offshore installation activities are scheduled for 2019.

“We are excited to partner with Fieldwood on this material new development in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, and we look forward to working with Fieldwood’s talented technical team on this project,” Craig Broussard, Subsea 7 vice president for the Gulf of Mexico, said.
