BP has awarded SLB OneSubsea and Subsea7 an engineering, procurement, construction and installation (EPCI) contract for the Ginger project offshore Trinidad and Tobago, according to a May 5 press release.

Under the EPCI, SLB OneSubsea will deliver four standardized vertical monobore subsea trees and tubing hangers, optimized for quicker delivery and installation.

The company will also deliver the first high-integrity pressure protection system manifold in the region, “which will unlock considerable safety, efficiency and environmental gains,” SLB OneSubsea said.

Subsea7 will supply a diver-installed tie-in system, a flexible production flowline and associated infrastructure.

BP’s Ginger development is southeast of Trinidad at water depths of up to 90 m. BP expects annual average net production of 50,000 boe/d after production starts in 2027.

The Ginger project is the first project award under the global framework agreement between BP and Subsea Integration Alliance partners SLB OneSubsea and Subsea7, the release stated.

“We believed that, by combining our skills, knowledge and experience more transparently, we could bring more projects over the line, more cost-effectively,” said Mads Hjelmeland, CEO of SLB OneSubsea, “Unlocking FID [final investment decision] for Ginger is a significant win for this new way of working together and I am excited for what’s ahead, for both Ginger and beyond.”
