Houston-based subsea energy equipment and services specialist KOIL Energy Solutions has secured a project for subsea umbilical handling, spooling, and storage services with an undisclosed company.
KOIL Energy has revealed the award of what it describes as a major subsea umbilical handling, spooling, and storage services project, which requires two large carousels. The firm will deploy both a newly acquired, large mobile offshore carousel and an existing carousel asset to execute the work.
Erik Wiik , President and Chief Executive Officer of KOIL Energy, commented: “This award is a pivotal moment for KOIL and further validates our strategy to scale our rental equipment and services platform. We secured funding, acquired a new mobile carousel, and already won its first contract, while also redeploying an underutilized carousel from our existing fleet.
“We were able to acquire what is essentially a new asset, ready for mobilization. This is a great opportunity for KOIL to expand our technical capabilities and accelerate our growth within rental equipment and services across the global subsea market.”

The work will be performed by the company’s service team during the second half of 2026, followed by long-term storage of the customer’s umbilical system. The new 3,500-metric-ton modular offshore carousel is designed to be assembled on board a vessel.
This is perceived to enable rapid mobilization and redeployment to new project locations in the U.S. and internationally on short notice. KOIL announced a new credit facility last month, which will help finance the new asset and support the company’s broader rental equipment investment plan.
