Oceaneering wins Appomattox work

Oceaneering International has secured a contract from Shell to supply umbilicals for the deepwater Appomattox development located in the Mississippi Canyon area of the US Gulf of Mexico.

The order is for electro-hydraulic steel tube control umbilicals, totaling approximately 60 km (37 mi) in length. Product manufacturing is planned to be performed at Oceaneering’s umbilical facility in Panama City, Florida, and is expected to commence in 4Q 2015 and be completed in 3Q 2017.

The Appomattox project includes the construction and installation of Shell’s eighth and largest floating platform in the Gulf of Mexico. The Appomattox development will initially produce from the Appomattox and Vicksburg fields, with average peak production estimated to reach 175,000 boe/d. The platform and the Appomattox and Vicksburg fields are owned by Shell (79%) and Nexen Petroleum Offshore USA (21%), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CNOOC.

This is the second Appomattox-related contract within a week. On 26 August, Louisiana-based Danos was selected to fabricate three boarding valve skid assemblies for the project.
