Pipelay off Vietnam shut down for high seas
Offshore staff
LONDON -- A high sea state in block 9-2 in Cuu Long basin, offshore southeast Vietnam, has intermittently shut down operations of the pipelay barge, causing some delay installing the production and water pipelines between the unmanned Ca Nu Vang (CNV) wellhead platform and the Bach Ho central processing platform over which CNV production will be processed.
Despite this unanticipated delay, oil production remains on target to begin by the end of July 2008, according to SOCO International.
