The work will utilize its cutting solution, which is capable of delivering time-saving efficiencies, James Fisher said on Thursday.

This project requires two full spreads of advanced abrasive cutting equipment to be mobilized in support of a regional contractor’s jacket removal program and secures JFO’s role in this scope of work well into 2020.

The company has not revealed any further details about the project.

Jack Davidson, managing director, JFO commented: “As a key market for JFO, the appetite for our solutions in the Middle East region is very encouraging.

“There is a clear recognition of our experience, track record and innovation in delivering measurable efficiencies for some of the region’s most notable decommissioning projects.”
