Wide beam design combines riser-based intervention with well construction capability

摘要

Contract commencement for Siem Offshore's new well intervention vessels followed the completion of extended contract negotiations with Petrobras, Brazil's state oil company. The negotiations were needed to amend terms for contracts for Siem Helix 1 and sister vessel Siem Helix 2, both of which were contracted and ordered before the downturn in the offshore oil and gas industry following the steep fall in the oil price.
