Picture of the day: Ichthys christmas trees

Inpex-operated Ichthys LNG project’s first christmas tree systems arrived in Australia last week. 

Christmas trees are a vital component of the subsea equipment necessary to complete the project’s development wells.

Inspection and pre-deployment testing will be completed in GE’s Jandakot facility before it is handed over to the drilling team and installed as a part of the Ichthys’ upcoming production drilling campaign.

The delivered christmas tree systems weigh more than 100 tonnes each with fittings and associated structures.
