JDR’s Flying Leads for Vashishta & S1 Project Off India

UK-based JDR has been awarded a contract by GE Oil & Gas, on behalf of ONGC, for the Vashishta & S1 project offshore India.

The Vashishta & S1 fields are located in the KG Basin, 30 to 35 kilometers off the east coast of India, at a water depth of 250 to 700 meters.

JDR’s scope of supply includes the engineering, design and manufacture of 12 steel tube flying leads and associated hardware. JDR’s technical services team will also provide design analysis for the project including flow and structural analyses and free spanning vortex induced vibration (VIV) analysis, the company informed.

JDR CEO, David Currie, said: “We are delighted to support GE and ONGC by providing the critical links to their subsea control system.”

Flying leads, which are used to connect subsea trees to umbilical termination arrangements, manifolds and subsea distribution units, will be manufactured at JDR’s facility in Hartlepool, UK.
