LUXEMBOURG Chevron U.S.A. Inc. has contracted Subsea 7 to provide subsea installation services for the Anchor field in the Green Canyon area of the Gulf of Mexico.

The Anchor field is about 140 mi (225 km) offshore Louisiana, in water depths of about 5,000 ft (1,524 m). 

Subsea 7’s scope of work includes project management, engineering, procurement, construction and installation of the SURF components including, but not limited to, the production flowlines, risers, umbilicals, flying leads, jumpers, and associated appurtenances.

Project management and engineering will start immediately at the company’s offices in Houston. Fabrication of the flowlines and risers will take place at its spoolbase in Ingleside, Texas, with offshore operations anticipated to occur in 2022 and 2023.

Craig Broussard, vice president for Subsea 7 US, said: “The combination of the SURF scope for Subsea 7 and the ongoing subsea equipment delivery by OneSubsea, will allow the Subsea Integration Alliance to work in partnership with Chevron to unlock the value of an integrated approach to project optimization.”
