The contract will run for five years with options to extend. Fugro will establish a project office in Miri and a support facility in Labuan. Fugro expects to engage most of its Asia Pacific subsea fleet over the duration of the contract, dependent on the activity, which includes saturation and air diving activities, deepwater installation of trees/subsea hardware and pipeline and platform inspection services. All work will be performed under Fugro’s QHSE system, which is in accordance with Shell’s industry leading QHSE and operational standards.
