Maersk Supply Service has been selected to deliver an integrated FPSO mooring installation and replacement solution for an American oil major in the Gulf of Guinea, the company said on April 25.

Maersk Supply Service will provide the full work scope from project management to execution.

Responsibilities undertaken as part of the project include engineering, procurement, transportation of mooring equipment, safety management and offshore execution using four of Maersk Supply Service’ large anchor handling vessels as well as ROV and survey services. Maersk Supply Service has partnered with InterMoor, who will support the project with their expertise within engineering, design and offshore execution of mooring system operations.

“As the project lead of this FPSO mooring installation, we look forward to further strengthening our position in the market as a preferred solutions provider,” Steen S. Karstensen, Maersk CEO, said.

The project will be led from Maersk Supply Service’s office in Aberdeen, with an integrated project team supporting from Houston. The planning and engineering work commences immediately, with offshore execution expected to take place during fourth-quarter 2019.
