Tullow hires Enpro Subsea for Jubilee, TEN fields support

Oil firm Tullow has awarded a frame agreement contract to Enpro Subsea to support Tullow’s strategic activities offshore Ghana.

The contract will see the Aberdeen-based production optimization specialist delivering its subsea intervention technologies to support Tullow’s plans with new and existing wells in the Jubilee and TEN fields.

According to Enpro Subsea, the campaign will see a consignment of up to 15 of its flow access modules (FAMs) being deployed in phases during 2018 and 2019 to facilitate a range of immediate applications including, multiphase metering, scale squeeze and acid stimulation in addition to potential future applications like fluid sampling and water cut metering.

Enpro Subsea managing director, Ian Donald, said: “We’re proud to be working with Tullow. This latest order from them reflects the continuing momentum and interest in Enpro’s ability to deliver proven technology.

“Critically, Enpro’s FAM technology provides Tullow with a universal platform deployed at multiple locations, which will enable them to retrofit any one of a number hardware solution at any time during the field development. We look forward to strengthening our relationship with Tullow Oil as this field continues to mature.”

Enpro says its FAM technology last year helped a major operator in the Gulf of Mexico achieving first oil in just 11 months – a record time for the operating company and one month ahead of schedule.
