Van Oord subsea rock installation project
Dutch dredging and marine contractor Van Oord says its flexible fallpipe vessel (FFPV) Tertnes has been mobilised to the east coast of Mexico (Bay of Campeche).
It will execute subsea rock installation projects on pipelines and cables for various main contractors, with the ultimate client being state oil and gas company PEMEX.
Tertnes, which has a loading capacity of 9,785 tons, was mobilised to the Far East via the Panama Canal to guarantee a timely commencement of the works in Mexico.
Supported by the local offices in Houston and Mexico City, the operations will take place in the fourth quarter of 2011. This is Van Oord’s first ever rock installation project in Mexico.
