By GlobalData“Considering the broad and extensive business partnership between Oceaneering and OneSubsea, it is a pleasure awarding the stab plate and flying lead package of this technically challenging project to one of the leaders in the market. I am absolutely confident this project will be a success for both of our companies and even strengthen the collaboration in the future.”
Oceaneering noted that a part of the order has already been delivered to OneSubsea.
According to Oceaneering, Anchor is the first 20,000 psi-rated field to be developed in the deepwaters of Gulf of Mexico.
Oceaneering Energy Manufactured Products vice-president Nuno Sousa said: “This 20,000 psi-rated subsea hydraulic connection hardware solves one of the industry’s biggest challenges in developing high pressure fields and allows operators to explore deeper depths more safely.
“The new design provides a highly-reliable and robust solution based on our field-proven M Series junction plates of which there are more than 6,000 in operation globally.”
