Drydocks World has secured a contract from Orwell Offshore to fabricate an external Turret for FPSO Layang.
Drydocks World said it aimed to fast-track the project, and would look to complete by Q1 2016.
Drydocks World have successfully delivered similar external turrets for FPSO’s and FSRU’s in the past.
The external turret for Orwell Offshore will deliver significant improvements in operational effectiveness and weathervaning capabilities on FPSO Layang, enabling FPSO operations in water depths of up to 90m.
Drydocks World’s innovative strategy has lead the company to win global projects for the international energy industry, such as Orwell Offshore, validating our approach into the future.
“Constructing this turret for Orwell offshore is a milestone in marking the next phase of turret development at Drydocks World and we look forward to working with Orwell Offshore again” said Drydocks in a statement.
