The contract for the Gjøa project is for the pre-installation of static and dynamic umbilicals and flexible risers in 2009 and hook up of risers to the Gjøa platform in 2010.

The contract for the Morvin project is for the installation of a flexible riser, a direct electrical heating riser, a dynamic umbilical at Åsgard B, and two static umbilicals from Morvin to Åsgard.
