Sea Trucks Bags Contract Offshore Argentina

Sea Trucks Group has been awarded a contract from Enap Sipetrol Argentina for a pipelay construction for its PIAM Project in the Magallanes field, offshore Argentina.

The scope of work covers engineering, project management and installation of three pipelines of various sizes ranging from 6 to 14 inch, with one shore approach, as well as the installation of tie-in spools and risers.

It also includes abandonment of two existing lines and recovery of flexibles, the company informed.

At the back of the installation campaign Sea Trucks has also been awarded an accommodation services contract.

Jascon 34, one of the group’s DP3 pipelay construction and accommodation vessels, has been nominated for both scopes, Sea Trucks noted.

Offshore activities are scheduled to start in Q4 2016.

Jacques J. Roomans, president of Sea Trucks, said: “We are delighted that, in the present difficult market, Sea Trucks has been awarded this significant contract. This award demonstrates our ability to offer clients a flexible and tailored project solution based around the clients requirement, our extensive track record and unique multi purpose DP3 assets.”
