California-based Teledyne Technologies' Oil & Gas group has been awarded a contract by Aker Solutions for materials and engineering support covering subsea electrical and optical wet-mate interconnects for Total's Kaombo develpoment offshore Angola.
Shipments are expected to start late in Q4 and continue throughout 2015. In April 2014, Aker Solutions announced the award of a contract from Total to provide a subsea production system for the Kaombo Block 32 development, about 150km offshore Angola. The project includes the delivery of 20 subsea manifolds, 65 vertical subsea wellsets, as well as associated controls and work-over and tie-in systems.
“Teledyne Oil & Gas has a well-established partnership with Aker Solutions,” said Robert Mehrabian, Chairman, President and CEO of Teledyne. “We are honored and pleased to be selected to play a significant role in the success of the Kaombo project.”
