MODEC in search of FPSO mooring hook-up services for ExxonMobil’s Uaru project

MODEC Guyana Inc. (MOG) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for Floating, Production, Storage and Offloading vessel (FPSO) mooring hook-up services for the Uaru Project. 

The project involves the Errea Wittu FPSO, which will be situated 190 kilometers from shore in a water depth of around 1,670 meters. The scope of work requires offshore marine engineering, suitable vessels, equipment, machinery, and remote-operated vehicles (ROVs) to carry out the hook-up activities.
