Marine services and solutions provider Teekay Offshore has awarded a contract for subsea work on two floating, production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels to Norwegian diving contractor SubseaPartner.
SubseaPartner said on Wednesday that the contract was for ongoing subsea work on the Petrojarl Foinaven and Hummingbird Spirit FPSO.
The company added that detailed planning and engineering was complete and SubseaPartner chartered the vessel Olympic Zeus as support for the offshore diving campaign.
The mobilization was executed in Haugesund, Norway, and the dive team went through a proper familiarization on the vessel before the sail away to the Scottish sector.
Chief commercial officer of SubseaPartner Ole Morten Skogland said: “This is the company’s second contract award from Teekay Offshore in the past year […].
“Our global strategy to become a global FPSO field support contractor starts in the North Sea by the delivery of safe and cost-effective solutions and equipment. Our Transfer Under Pressure concept and Light Diving Craft fleet contributes to meet the increasing demand for global FPSO field support.”
The company’s previous contract with Teekay was for air diving services also on the Hummingbird Spirit. The deal was awarded to SubseaPartner in September 2018.
It is also worth reminding that SubseaPartner was awarded a contract in mid-April for work on Vår Energi’s Goliat FPSO in the Barents Sea offshore Norway.
