Offshore staff
HOUSTON – Shell Offshore Inc. has contracted Deep Down Inc. for work related to its deepwater Whale field development in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The order includes the design, engineering, and manufacturing of a riser isolation valve (RIV) control system as well as other subsea production equipment. The RIV control system will be installed on the floating production unit (FPU) to provide shutdown of production fluids.
The Whale FPU will operate in the Alaminos Canyon block 773, pending a positive final investment decision later this year.
