Offshore equipment and services company Deep Down announced it has received an order from Shell for work related to its Kaikias development in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

The order is for the design, engineering, manufacturing and installation of a riser isolation valve control system on the Ursa tension-leg platform (TLP), located in the Mississippi Canyon Block 810, approximately 130 miles from the coast of Louisiana, in water depth of 1,370 meters.

The riser isolation valve control system will be installed on the TLP to provide shutdown of production fluids, Deep Down said.
