Oslo’s ocean services provider DeepOcean has been awarded a contract by ExxonMobil Guyana, for the provision of subsea construction and IMR (inspection, maintenance, and repair) services offshore Guyana in South America.
DeepOcean will plan and execute a wide range of subsea activities, including subsea construction and jumper installations as well as subsea IMR work, at ExxonMobil Guyana’s operations at the Stabroek Block, located approximately 120 miles offshore Guyana.
DeepOcean will deploy the multi-purpose support vessel (MPSV) “Siem Day” to conduct subsea operations.
She is equipped with a 250te crane and cutting-edge technology and features. Furthermore, the vessel boasts a large deck space, advanced dynamic positioning systems, and dual ROV spreads.
DeepOcean informs that the Stabroek Block is one of the world’s most promising oil and gas discoveries, with estimated recoverable resources exceeding eight billion oil-equivalent barrels to date.
Tony Stokes, president of DeepOcean’s American operation, which will manage the work from DeepOcean’s side, said that “This is our first major contract with ExxonMobil in the Americas and our market entry into the exciting Guyana market.”
“We are highly committed to delivering high-quality subsea services and solutions, and we look forward to working closely with ExxonMobil Guyana to support their operations in the various field developments in the Stabroek Block,” he added.
