Ceona, SURF contractor with heavy subsea construction capabilities, has been recently awarded two new contracts in Nigeria further underpinning the company’s rapidly evolving footprint and track record in the region, along with its local strategic partner Marine Platforms Limited (MPL).
The contracts, which are worth more than USD 30M in all, will see Ceona providing vessels from its first-class fleet together with its installation expertise on the Nigerian Agip Exploration (ENI NAE) ABO12 well completion, as well as supporting MPL on the Sea Eagle FPSO on behalf of Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC). Engineering has already started on the ABO12 project with the full scope of work involving the installation of flexibles, umbilicals and a PLEM suction pile system. Offshore work is planned for February 2015.
Mark Preece, executive vice president, Commercial and Business Development at Ceona, said: “These contracts reinforce the high value, all-encompassing subsea construction service that Ceona is delivering to clients. It also demonstrates the strong strategic partnership we have developed with MPL in the country, and how it is supporting our growing geographical footprint across West Africa.”
