Sea Trucks Awarded Contract Offshore Ghana
Sea Trucks Group said it has secured a contract award from Tullow Ghana Limited for the provision of a Construction Support Vessel (CSV) providing Accommodation and Heavy Lift services to the turret moored FPSO Kwame Nkrumahe, located in the Jubilee Unit Area, 60 km offshore Ghana.
The scope of work covers accommodation for up to 120 company pax. The scope also includes the heavy lift of two 50 Ton fairlead chain stopper foundation block structures, a 34 Ton mooring pull-in winch and other smaller lifts.
Jascon 28, one of the group’s DP3 accommodation Hook-Up vessels, has been nominated for both scopes, demonstrating the advantage for our clients of the hybrid design configuration of our DP3 construction vessel fleet.
Offshore activities are scheduled to commence in Q4 2016 for a duration of 2 months firm, with options to extend the contract up to 30 days.
Graeme Pennycook, Sea Trucks Group’s Managing Director, commented, “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 tailored project solution based around the clients requirement and the unique multi-purpose utilization of our DP3 assets. This is our first contract award from Tullow; we look forward to demonstrating our strong project management and operational capabilities with them in what we hope will be the start of a long working relationship between the two companies.”
