Subsea 7 has increased its planned activity in the Gulf of Mexico region with the award of a second construction contract for the Vito development.
The Vito field is located approximately 130 nautical miles south of New Orleans, Louisiana, with water depths up to 1,219 metres.
The latest contract was awarded by Enbridge Offshore Facilities for the transportation and installation of 80 kilometres of 45-cm oil export pipelines, 27 kilometres of 25-cm gas export pipelines, and four kilometres of associated steel catenary risers and pipeline end terminations.
Offshore installation activities are scheduled for 2019 and 2020.
Subsea 7 is already providing project management, engineering, procurement, and installation services to Shell Vito, as part of a contract awarded and announced earlier this year.
