DeepOcean has signed a deal with ExxonMobil Guyana providing the former entry into the “exciting Guyana market”.
DeepOcean will provide subsea construction and IMR (inspection, maintenance and repair) services offshore Guyana under the contract, it said in a news release.
“This is our first major contract with ExxonMobil in the Americas and our market entry into the exciting Guyana market. We consider this is a confirmation of our team’s expertise and the technical solutions we bring to the table”, said Tony Stokes, president of DeepOcean’s American operation, which will manage the work.
Under the contract, DeepOcean said it will plan and execute a wide range of subsea activities including subsea construction and jumper installations as well as subsea IMR work, at ExxonMobil Guyana’s Stabroek Block, located approximately 120 miles offshore Guyana.
DeepOcean also said it will deploy the Siem Day multi-purpose support vessel (MPSV) to conduct subsea operations. The Siem Day MPSV is equipped with a 250-tonne crane and cutting-edge technology and features, enabling efficient and safe operation even in the harshest offshore environments, it said. The vessel boasts a large deck space, advanced dynamic positioning systems and dual ROV spreads, ensuring superior performance and maximum productivity, it said.
“We are highly committed to delivering high-quality subsea services and solutions, and we look forward to working closely with ExxonMobil Guyana to support their operations in the various field developments in the Stabroek Block”, adds Stokes.
DeepOcean noted, “The Stabroek Block is one of the world's most promising oil and gas discoveries, with estimated recoverable resources exceeding eight billion oil-equivalent barrels to date”.
